SPOILER: The PS5 at the end of the video was investigated during a livestream. The southbridge was replaced and the fault still existed. We managed to eventually get UART to work, which concluded it was the APU :( We gave it our best shot!
Paul Daniels needs to sort out his multimeter software delay that’s been an issue since day one. Louis Rossman which does this same kind of stuff but on apple devices has complained about it before as well. It mostly just comes down to not waiting long enough to get a proper reading. A traditional multimeter would probably have the same delay as it adjusts scales.
A half decent multimeter is going to be a lot faster than that. But yeah, Rossman was talkung about Paul Daniels and the bugs in a video yesterday. Somewhere in the middle of an over 1-hour+ long video about a guy he'd considered doing an event with but it didn't work out logistically but instead of saying that he insulted the other guy and his wife said something that wasn't accurate on a live stream and then when the other guy sent him an angry e-mail about it he got incredibly insulted and now apparently it's his mission in life to destroy the other guys life, reputation and company. It was...something. Rossman is great, he really knows his stuff about electronics and the law. I was really disappointed to see that whole psychopath side of him, although he has been hinting or even saying it for months whenever he mentions in a video why he's single. So, yeah, basically any cheap $20 meter should be able to react much quicker than whatever Joey is using. I don't know why he doesn't just make his own basic probe that just has 3 red/green LEDs on it: one for 3.3, 5, and 12v, where each one switches from red to green of the power rail is within tolerance. It would be instant, could have an instant little beep to indicate correct voltage, or a long/low beep/klaxon to indicate a voltage present but out of spec. You could make one in an hour.
@@SkippiiKai Louis is very knowledgeable but lacking ever so slightly in his social skills approach to dealing with people and finding solutions going forward. I also think (opinion only) that he ended up sort of as a paid pet for a billionaire, and that has only served to amplify his weaknesses. His how to repair videos are awesome, I use to really enjoy them. But he opened up a right to repair rabbit hole and is still digging on the bottom of it. That said, yes, the multimeter is too slow. For the type of "skipping around the board looking for shorts" approach it is nowhere near quick enough. For voltage reading, it seems to have a very hard time to range up properly and takes too long to report a result. This is the sort of thing that can cost a lot of time and a lot of money chasing a false symptom.
Joey, every video brings you one step closer to learning PSU repair! Come to the dark side... We've got all the dark topologies. We've got the flyback, the forward converter, the Zeta, the čuk, the sepic... I know you can hear those stacks of PSUs calling you. You know you want to.
I wouldn't have the patience to use that computer multimeter system. There is so much delay in the system and that's partially why you didn't catch the 3.3v reading, but I get why you use it.
Won’t lie Joey. Much prefer these proper videos to edited live streams. Plus I watch you on my OLED Telly and would much prefer no burn in from twitch chat lmao. Either way. Good work. Keep it up.
You really should start looking into power supplies too! You did say that you are afraid of them because of hazardous voltages in them but many PSU issues can be diagnosed and repaired without even plugging them in. Only thing you need to remember is to check and discharge input capacitors when you open up the PSU (often there is a bleed resistor but not always), everything else is safe until you plug it in again. This way you could at least look visually at the PSU or measure a thing of two in there. Very often the stability issues are caused by bad output capacitors which are easy enough to replace. PSU with no output at all may be as simple as dead bridge rectifier, input capacitors or primary driver mosfet, again, easy to fix (blown input fuse usually indicates this). There might be more weird issues there but at that point you at least know if it's worth while to fix or not.
-- Spoiler Saver The first one hit hard.. The Second PS5 was a nice fix and just easy because of the knowledge you gained over the years. And with the third one.. I don't know.. Sally isn't that happy lately but as every win streak, every loss streak has an end. Still runs better in my opinion than in the first season.
Easy way to test if is the the power supply is just log the 12v rail, if it starts to drop voltage than you know you dont have enough amps or if cuts off the 12v for 1 ou 2 sec.
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Joey.... Is this lazymi cooking mat good antistatic wise? I see that The Cod3r uses it too. I bought other mats supposedly antistatic for electronics but they weren't, you could feel the static on them.
why do you think its a good price if it costs £100 and its broken. Do you not account for your time and risk. I hope that if you do this in your own time you actually get good deals. The price of broken goods should be extremely cheap not 1/3 working price. It's people like that that reinforce these prices. It's not economical at all, I repair digital cameras, the for parts prices are nuts but I find it quite fun. I really do hope you keep the good deals to yourself otherwise I worry for your financial future. Please do not sell yourself short.
Where do you even get incandescent bulbs these days? 😅 But, no, he doesn't need and couldn't use a dim bulb for this stuff. It would just activate the Under Voltage Lockout on the SMPS. Dim bulbs only prevent 240v mains from going bang on a short circuit. They are great if you just replaced a high voltage mosfet on the main power supply and want to see if you put it in backwards without an impact face shield. Useless if you're working on the boards, because the power supply already has over and undervoltage and overcurrent and short circuit protection built in.
I reckon you could do power supply repairs, Joey. Quite a few other repair channels tackle them and -none of them have died yet- once you take the plunge and know what to do (safely) it would be another great skill to master. And the timing seems quite prescient. Is that the right word? I just mean with you running out of PSUs now.
Sometimes I'll be looking away from my screen for a while and the video will change and I'll come back, see those gloves, and think, "Why is Scott's Bass Lessons taking apart an X-box?"
I found the video jochenrudiger references and that guy didn't discharge the caps, if he would have it wouldn't have zapped him. Discharge those caps! then wait a few 3-5 minutes then discharge again because they can build a charge back up on their own, after that your good, unless you power back up or charge the caps. @JoeyDoesTech and everyone else for that matter, Don't let someone else's lack of knowledge scare you from learning, sad.

Joey, even sold “as is”, that does not prevent a return and full refund on eBay for not as described.
Well shite
guess time to change seller
APU = dead and buried?

Need to sort out your multimeter delay. It's costing you in mistakes and time.

I’ve heard flux in HDMI port can return failed APU on UART 😉
That APU on the very first one you opened did not look straight to me! LOL

Either way. Good work. Keep it up.
The same!
For the power supply issue put your probes on the 12v rail and monitor when it shutdowns if the voltage drops🎉

Great Video! Thank You. 😀
Man Ajaks, your comment was being displayed and it had spoilers lol.
@@danielhulan3058 I'm sorry, I'll edit it.
@ajaks7636 I was just playing. Its not really a big deal. I'm going to watch the video anyway lol.
I thought it was funny but I was playing. Its really not a big deal.
Wouldn't it be possible to swap the apu from a donor? Or is there a cpukey hardcoded?
Why not inject voltage again after replacing RT chip??

we have known unknowns, and known knowns but what we don't have is unknown unknowns, i think
As if I just sat down with a coffee and a smoke and got greeted with a "1 minute ago" upload 🙌🏻👌🏻 lovely jubbly!
Stop smoking...
@Vuknovic_04 I don't smoke cigs 👀
Relaxing with my cuppa tea, over here in North Carolina. Around noon, so good entertainment for my cuppa.

Problems that fix themselves will break themself again. If you can't repro the fault and test the fix, it's not a fix.
More great content, thanks ❤
Hey can you repair an og xbox wifi module instead or replacing it ?
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

1- broken stuff is overpriced on ebay, and you can get good deals only on lots at eg auctions
2- he gets way more money from the stream itself
May be a shorted coil on the RT chip. I will replace them from a donor board.
Didn't realise you had your vids dubbed hits diff in Spanish 😂😂
Preparing tea to watch this
Same! Except I’m in the US, and drinking imported F&M tea
struggle is real
joey just wondering if you fix ps5 portal, purchased 2nd hand , R1 button not working, it looks like it has been opened by previous owner.
Wow, I got the 2nd Like!!!
Attempt 43 of asking Joey for his Fluke multimeter
Would it be safer tusea dim bulb?
Where do you even get incandescent bulbs these days? 😅 But, no, he doesn't need and couldn't use a dim bulb for this stuff. It would just activate the Under Voltage Lockout on the SMPS.

Send the last ps5 to Toltec Merc since it's a rare case.

You fixed it then you broke it then you fixed it then you broke it! Me thinks it wasn't fixed at all...
Joey just make them digital versions instead of disk
They've got APU issues i.e. they're scrap. Tweaking the BIOS wouldn't change anything.
Am here
Poor Joey :(
hey Joey can you please welcome my face right at the start of the video? it's hard to get through the first 20ish seconds without my face otherwise
Why does he wear those disgusting gloves, yet touch his face and mouth with them?
Burnt flux that's all
Flux is his preferred perfume.
Sometimes I'll be looking away from my screen for a while and the video will change and I'll come back, see those gloves, and think, "Why is Scott's Bass Lessons taking apart an X-box?"
Lets go!
I'm guessing changing the CPU out isn't possible 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
It's not possibly cost effective
Joey fails so we don't have to
🤞🏻
3rd!
please get some new gloves :)
Why don't you repair the power supplies?
He told why in previous episode.
He does not want to feel as enlightened as The Cod3r was while repairing a PSU.
I found the video jochenrudiger references and that guy didn't discharge the caps, if he would have it wouldn't have zapped him.
