  • This Nintendo Switch tested my patience to the limit. I nearly gave up on it 2 times. I thought it was going to be simple, a nice little chip install, but no it was sent to test me. I hope you enjoy watching my pain, even the Switch itself decided to troll me. Kindly sent in by Tom along with the GameBoy Color that I did in another video.

    Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.

    We're learning more and more about how the Switch behaves.
    - What the circuit board physically needs to even turn on
    - The Initial pathways branching from the USB connector
    - The video chip with relation to the USB connection
    - And now, the pathway from the USB power to the fuse to the resistor array to the main controller chip.
    All of this that took hours, days, to diagnose and rectify, all summed up in one video.

  • @Popdaddy580
    @Popdaddy580 10 місяців тому +2

    I think the weird reading you were getting on the last resistor was due to the small voltage that the meter puts out, when reading ohms, might have been switching the "mosfet" on and off creating that fluctuating ohm reading. Just my guess anyway thank you for another wonderful video

  • @TheRambler7480
    @TheRambler7480 7 місяців тому

    Nice one bud! Really enjoyable video, glad you stuck with it. With that weird multimeter jumping around thing, if you take it off Auto Range I think by pressing the Range button would stop that happening and give you a reading

    You can heat the board from under M92 if you are afraid of knocking over some components. And i use a lot of flux to keep it there until the board heats up. That goes for the USBC port, too.
    Charging issues can also be solved by replacing the BQ chip.

  • @tommyrowe2k9
    @tommyrowe2k9 10 місяців тому +1

    Very well done Vince 🎉, Considering I had issues seating the M92 chip, there was no way I would have fixed this.
    Also, thank you for the lessons in your videos, I really appreciate you explaining why things may not have worked when I tried 👍
    I may dabble in microaoldering in the future, now that i see where i went wrong 😁

    Great job Vince. Proves having a spare around is not a bad idea. Those tiny resistors don't show any signs of physical damage painted black like that. The old through hole types were much easier to spot the damage from overheating, with the manufacturers having mostly used lighter shades of colour. Imo just using the colour black for smd resistors is a poor choice. Probably would be better if they were painted white with black values written on them.

    @davesdigitaldomain 10 місяців тому +1

    Vince just a couple of tips for you. when soldiering IC use more flux, then the chip will pull into place. Secondly when cleaning the circuit board do not quench it with IPA the rapid change in temperature can cause ceramic capacitors and other components like IC to microfracture, always allow the circuit board to cool down first. I see many UA-camrs do this and it's not the correct way.🙂
