    The PSP UMD drives are really interesting, because there are 2 switches that tell them to turn on. If one fails or is damaged, the drive won't spin because both switches need to be depressed to work. If you ever have a PSP that won't read UMDs, make sure it's spinning before messing with the laser assembly itself.

    Great job.
    If you can't find alcohol, your local liquor store probably has Everclear or some kind of 190 proof clear alcohol, which is the same thing... Costs a little more, but they have it.....

    the most interesting one was the reflow on the 3ds, generally the blue light stays on longer than that, so I knew you had something different going on than a broken backlight connection.
    nice fix.

    I remember when I tried to fix my 3DS after throwing my CD binder on top of it. I cracked the top screen so I ordered a new one. It did not end well for me. I tore the ribbon cable on the new screen and just wound up buying the cheapest used 3DS I could find.

  • @shanez1215
    @shanez1215 3 роки тому +3

    Damn I never thought of just cutting the old port off, putting USB C on my 3DS was such a pain in the ass since I was trying to get all the pads hot at once.
    A lot of times when the 3DS does that 3 seconds with blank screen then power off with pop, it means the camera ribbon cable got kinked. If you unplug the ribbon it will still boot and play games but will crash when you do anything with the cameras.
    Super common issue when taking apart that thing due to the 3 overlapping ribbons in that area. So make sure you test the cameras. You can probably still sell it if you disclose it, most people and games don't use the cameras.

    Gonna leave my feedback here, i like more videos where you repair just one thing, because you focus in more details and i learn more stuff, in this video is a rush, like this is the problem, change this, is ready, next.
    Dont get me wrong, this are good videos too, but in my personal opinion i prefer much more individual or maybe 2 or 3 of the same machine.
