Isn't he the guy that was in Transformers? Called Sam! Also when you said the Switch was "Bent" words out my mouth were 'Rage Quit' Then, You proceeded to say It, Brother Steves think alike. That was a 'Solid' Fix 18:05 for me, I see Dad the Gopher ❤ Get In! ' Nice! ' Yesss!! 😊 👍🏻
That's the one! There was definitely a slight bend on this, probably only a couple of mm, but the rage quit evidence was there! Solid, solid, solid! I'll take that, thanks brother Steve! 😊
@@StezStixFix I'm fairly sure that Switches being bent was just a thing that could happen with the first couple of batches. So it's not necessarily someone who got hit with one too many blue shells, it's just a slight manufacturing "defect".

I'm not really experience but most of the time, I try to fix my stuff first before getting a replacement. And it does brings me joy when I manage to fix something.
Thanks Vince! 👍 That means alot mate, really appreciate it. I'm really happy with how this one turned out. It felt really good to see it fully working! 😍
Your skills and knowledge have significantly increased Steve. You look humble and probably you consider yourself an amateur, but you're definitely looking like a pro already mate. Keep it up!
Like others, just came across this channel. Some great repair videos! Love to see you fault find and not just replace the part like with the card reader. Very satisfying! :) Looking forward to going through your old content and to future videos
Brilliant job Mr. Bodge. By the way, the via trick isn't a bodge, it's actually a very good way to ensure your wire makes a strong secure bond. I think I showed that on a PS4 repair once. You should be pleased with that result. Also, that chip on the module is a touch ic. Don't hope to buy them though, they cost more than the actual card reader does lol. Awesome work
😁 cheers mate, appreciate it! I was really happy with the trace repair and I feel it'll be a lasting repair too. I got a real buzz from seeing it working, loved this one! 👍
@@StezStixFix definitely mate, nothing wrong at all with the way you did that. You're definitely getting a lot better at using your noggin to come up with different methods
Brilliant video as always mate. It would of been easy to just swap the reader but I love the fact you was determined to find the fault of the original.
Thanks Dan, I was tempted to leave the working one in but I'm glad I didn't. I was much more satisfying to fault-find and get the original one working 👍
Steve my friend you are a star. I'm not too well at the moment but your videos always help make me feel better. Much love and light from our home to yours. Paul & Lorna. ❤😇
Well spotted and a great set of fixes. There is something about the capillary action of vias that holds any corroding agent onto the board ... well done for noticing them. Shame more manufacturers don’t coat their finished boards to protect against such minor damage ..... but then again it makes for some interesting videos. Well done Steve.
Slowly slowly slowly becoming my fav YT channel buddy. You come across as a stand up guy, like I've known you for years. Even my Mrs thought you was funny hahaha
great card reader repair. I have loads of these which don't work(they go in a pile), so one day I'll use this video to repair them all. love your humour and your editing btw.
Hi Steve. I like most others, happened upon your channel and love the light hearted content and in-depth repairs. Keep up the great work buddy. We, your public love it!!
Nice!! The cod3r better watch out LOL and it was he who pointed out your improvement in soldering and using hotair. You are certainly a much better and improved technician. Man you make me laugh. A pleasure to watch... Nice!! Nice NICE..!! And nice ONE.
😊 Thanks! I do feel like I'm getting better with each attempt. Practice makes perfect I guess. Although, now I've said that, I'll probably mess up the next one! 😂
Incredible mate. I was on the floor when you mentioned Dave, the handsome little bugger. The wires through the via, the tidy job, the way you made the port swap look so easy, you're smashing it my dude. Well done 👍👍
Thanks mate, really appreciate it! 👍 Not gonna lie, I really enjoyed this one, it felt so good to get it fully working! I think Dave is my good luck charm... I just hope he doesn't get vacuumed up! 😲
Great video. As always really enjoyed. My wife has actually started watching them with me, she doesn't understand much of what's being done but enjoys watching none the less 🙃 I have a nintendo switch with a broken USB c port to change. Where do you get your ports from Please?
Hi Antony, glad you both enjoy the videos! The ports I bought from Replace Base. You can probably get them cheaper from eBay/Aliexpress, but I've used Replace Base lots of times and their stuff is always great quality! 👍
I have no idea why I decided to subscribe to this channel, and why I'm hooked? Probably cos he seems like a cool bloke, or is it because we just like to see things made good? 🤷🏻
Nice job Steve 👍 I'm glad you have kept Dave? Hi Dave? Wish I had the Confidence to try and fix stuff like you are my hero and you are like a dad to me as you show me the right way to do things thank you dad? Lol what type of flux do you use I only have the stuff that you brush on is that where I'm going wrong with my repairs do you rate the flux you brush on or not please advise me dad!?
😁 thanks son! I havent tried the brush on stuff, but the flux I use always seems to work well for me and I wouldn't personally use the brush on stuff (although I have seen others using it, and it seems to work ok). I'd go for a cheaper syringe one to start with, like the Kingbo RMA 218. You can usually pick it up from eBay for a few £'s 👍
Are you interested in doing any soldering basic guides. I keep thinking that it would be very useful knowledge, it would be awesome to have you as a teacher!
Thats so cool how the braided copper soaks up the solder like that. Lol no matter how much thermal paste someone uses, its not the right amount, so many different opinions on the matter lmao. Amount, technique to apply, how you spread it (or should you in the first place), how to properly re attach the heatsink, you end up doing it wrong somehow.
I just swapped a metallbracket cartridge of a Switch. Big respect in what you do Steve! Could you possibly recommend a fluss/flux to use from Amazon? I´m kinda new to all this soldering things, but I find it very fun to do! But I cant decide what to buy. I use leaded solder in case that makes a difference of the fluss/flux.
Another great video as always! I think you should preserve Dave in some resin so he can stay with you forever 🤣 Great fix pal, im kinda wanting to find a broken switch and have a go myself. What was I supposed to do with the bell again though?
🤣 all i know is that you don't slap or smash the bell! Cheers Lee, good idea about Dave. I'm worried he's going to get cleaned away, so that would put my mind at rest if he's encased in resin! 😎
Hi Steve really enjoying your videos I'm doing my own repairs on my electronics with help from your channel can I ask where you get your parts from your chips etc thanks in advance have a blessed day
Please could you advise me of what type of hot air station should a beginner buy as I haven't got one and I know if I had one things I try and repair would be a lot easier but I haven't got much funds for a top dog one thanks Steve 👍
Hi David. I started of with a cheap Yihua one from Amazon. The one I bought doesn't seem to be available anymore, but there are a few similar ones if you search Yihua on there. I've since upgraded to a Quick 861 (which cost a lot more) because the Yihua broke after a couple of years of use, but it worked well as a starter for me! 👍 Maybe try one like this: amzn.to/39llFwS
Stumbled on your channel and really love how you tackle electronic issues. I learn as you learn. Do you take repair requests? I have a PS1 that has video output that doesn't look great. I also have a ps2 that has a disc read issue, and may or may not have a video output issue. I could mail those over and pay for repair services if you accept USA currency. Keep up the great work Steve.
stupid question,im new hello everyone. why doesn't the board melt when you use the iron or hot air? Love your work and it has given me the confidence to try my self..as my dad used to say if its broke what the worst you can do trying. Bless him. Now i cant throw things away till i try to fix it then till i give it away to people on Ebay lol..same with makita tools :)
Great work! Like a boss! 😎 You make it seem easy, but if it was easy everybody would be doing it, and we know that they aren't. Captain Bodge to the rescue!!!
Loving your videos man please keep them coming! I do have a question though. When you were replacing the USB port, you added solder to the mounts and then de-soldered it. I was curious of why you did that? I don't think I've seen that technique before. Thanks in advance- Jon
Adding fresh solder to joints helps them flow better for desoldering. I couldn't tell you the physics behind it, but in practice it definitely has a noticeable effect
I tried both (aftermarket and offical dock), but for the video it was easier to use the aftermarket one. It's a relaible one that I use with my own Switch 👍
wow I can't believe that, is this a genuine video ? I find it hard to believe you bought something on eBay that was exactly as described 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 seriously though that fix was a "proper job" 👍 you was due a fix that didn't cause you too many headaches 🤣😂🤣😂
😂 Thanks n1cks! Yeah, I was definitely due this after the last one. Hard to believe an eBay listing was genuine, but this one was absolutely spot on! Really happy with the end result! 👍
I need some repair advice. My iPhone XR has been acting weird ever since I slapped the like button and smashed the subscribe button. Any suggestions? :)
Is that the one and only battery sucking game gear in the background? I always wanted one but I had a friend who had one and let me play but constantly had to buy batteries lol oh the struggles of the 90s. I like your content and smashed the subscribe button and now my screens broke lol
I have the exact same problem with a brand new switch when docking on that USB C prong. It wobbles around and doesn't always provide video output. I wonder if all that wobbling around that it normally does stresses the port and causes it to eventually break contacts.
@@MrGunner300 It's not just about height. Being bent more to 90 degrees will make them contact the cartridge earlier. If you go and look at contacts 8 and 11 on the cartridge, you can see they're slightly longer than the other contacts. This, coupled with the pins being at a steeper angle, will ensure these pins make contact before any of the others. However, with the actual cartridge's contacts being longer, it probably doesn't rely on the pin angles/ heights being different. So, yeah, probably just that they're bent.

Brilliant, one of your best fixes/videos. The card reader repair was beautiful. Well done Steve 👍👍👍
Thanks Vince! 👍 That means alot mate, really appreciate it. I'm really happy with how this one turned out. It felt really good to see it fully working! 😍
Dude, your Dad humor is off the charts! Love it!
So glad to find clean, witty and at times silly humor. I appreciate that as do others, I'm sure.
Great repair! It's so awesome you took the extra time to diagnose the problem with the card reader and do a repair. Impressive work!
Thanks Adam! Yeah, it felt so good to repair the fault on that card reader! Glad I didn't take the easy option of just swapping it out! 👍
Because now you still have a known working part for later diag issues or future replacements.
Your skills and knowledge have significantly increased Steve. You look humble and probably you consider yourself an amateur, but you're definitely looking like a pro already mate. Keep it up!
Thanks Jay! Definitely still an amateur but I'm learning with each fix. I can tell I'm getting better! 👍
I get filled with confidence when ever I watch fixing videos, yet ever time i try to fix stuff it all ends up a giant pile of parts and salder
after years working with board repairs on phones, today I learned something new, excellent reasoning sorting that one out, props to you sir!
1:17 The best part is: "Buyer will not be disappointed"
I took electronics in high school. I wished I paid more attention. Now as an adult, I find it very interesting now!
you made that usb port change look so easy i really enjoyed this fix steve well done
Thanks Jon, it helped having worked on one quite recently so I was pretty confident! Really happy with how it turned out! 👍
Sir, you never did stupid things with this subs and bells etc. I realise in this moment how enjoyable and peacefull this behavior this is! *Thanks* 👍
Never seen such clean and solid repairs.
Very sympathetic atmosphere :)

Quick question if I may. Did you use a specific Nintendo adaptor to connect to hdmi or was it a common or garden variety usb-c to HDMI?

Haha, I haven't watched strictly for years! 😁
I have the exact same problem with a brand new switch when docking on that USB C prong. It wobbles around and doesn't always provide video output. I wonder if all that wobbling around that it normally does stresses the port and causes it to eventually break contacts.
I dare say those “higher” cartridge pins were like that by design. Perhaps they were the ground pins, which were meant to make contact first?
I don't think so. Since the cartridge's height doesn't change when its being slotted. So the higher or lower pins wouldnt make a difference imo.
@@MrGunner300 It's not just about height. Being bent more to 90 degrees will make them contact the cartridge earlier. If you go and look at contacts 8 and 11 on the cartridge, you can see they're slightly longer than the other contacts. This, coupled with the pins being at a steeper angle, will ensure these pins make contact before any of the others.
However, with the actual cartridge's contacts being longer, it probably doesn't rely on the pin angles/ heights being different. So, yeah, probably just that they're bent.
This was a really nice fix 😉
