We appreciate you showing the unsuccessful attempts. Thanks for the honesty.
Yes, and it is actually more interesting, since you can see a more complex troubleshooting process
Me too🤔 Learning and knowing what works is just as important as what doesn't😎
He's really making me super trust him more
i love longer video so we can learn alot from something that is not a straight through fix
I agree with you totally, but in Alex's shoes, he has to repair enough units each day to keep the doors of the business open also. I see this from both perspectives, but yeah, the longer videos definitely offer more in-depth learning opportunities for us spectators. Fred
I have way more time than you allowed to fix a board.
Someone told me one time, "you have to know when to give up"
Great respect from Romania!
De unde esti?
So how did you fail? Besides that you need to go find that missile and fix that board no matter what.
@@emstroop8859Yeah this stuff is all very easy right? and thats probably why he loves to fix electronics. Did you fix that missile yet?
@@emstroop8859 did you fix that missile yet?
@@emstroop8859 please enlighten the rest of us peasants how he should of fixed this board then
This could be the best repair video on UA-cam as it shows a talented technician taking longer and showing life is not straight forward every day. This man is incredible
he failed on the check of the pwm chip just keep changing mosfet whitout cheking the pwm signal of it.
I think after the 1st two popped MOSFETs, I’d have just removed all the MOSFETs in that section, then measured the resistance from ground to each of the power rails right where the power supply plugs in, but with the PSU disconnected. If that checks out, try to measure the voltages on the gates (and drains) of the MOSFETs that keep failing (or, better yet, use a scope) with the PSU connected.
There shouldn’t be any voltage drop (in diode mode) between the gate and either source or drain of a MOSFET; the gate floats on an insulating oxide layer over the source-drain channel. It should show 0L (overload) on the meter. This whole thing sounds like an initial cascade failure which rapidly took out the MOSFETs and (possibly) the gate drivers.
It makes sense
they are in 2 mosfet and feed back to the pwm chip fix is cheack the pwm chip and the feedback of it. some tyime when a mosfet dead it kill the pwm chip too.
You are an electronic troubleshooting warrior Alex. You put so much effort into that repair attempt. I have nothing but enormous respect for you sir. Fred
What was that Karren?
@@seannesbit2218 It's called respect and appreciation. You may learn about it someday. Ask your parents because they may know a thing or two about it. You clearly don't.
@@Dandan-tg6tj Ok Boomer!
Wow! What a nightmare!!! I was on the edge of my seat... super interesting. Thanks!
ALEX: Although it's great to celebrate a fix with you, as a fellow technician I often find that no-fix situations have a lot to offer as well, even if that means where to draw the line.
"More graphics card than amazon" that's gold right there.
Lol!
@Mariukas at least they exists XD
@@ayumuaikawa they exist they exist :P and they are free too, but a lot of people didn't understood that^^
Headache 😣
@@Almahdi331 what's you smoking
Wow i never expected a no-fix to be uploaded. Very genuine. Very honest man
I like these kind of videos where you show the struggle in being a technician
100% justified repair attempt fee, I think you went above and beyond what anyone could expect from any repair shop.
Good job brother. I like you when you said لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله
Your troubleshooting videos are a pleasant to watch. I remember when I used to follow my grandfather around all day watching him troubleshooting TVs and Radios all day until he tells me to get lost when he gets a bad troubleshooting moment.
I wanted to thank you for posting this video, despite it not being able to be economically repaired. It shows the level of troubleshooting needed in the absence of diagnostic kits/schematics. As a repairer, you have to draw the line sometimes especially if the kit in question is relatively inexpensive.
Looks like an active short. When powering up, something is driving those mosfets off spec and blowing them like a fuse. The weakest mosfet blows first, so you would need to check the voltage rails with an oscilloscope as soon as you turn the device on. Well if you would really want to go that rabbit hole
Hey, it's my 980Ti! I'm sorry you have such a mountainous graphics card workload, which I'm contributing to.
Did ya overclock it?
4:35 you probably right.
The difference is, Amazon sells video card already broken.
You give your time and effort to get them fixed.
True
You're such a transplant technician. Most repairers only expose their perfetion but where things go wrong, they hide. Thanks for the effort.
I think the problem was in one of the driver ICs (or maybe all of them) NCP5901 (marking AZP). Also you need to check VALUE of the capacitor on pin1 - gate boost circuit
Winning is not always making a device work but gaining experience and knowledge too. Great lesson and knowledge thx a lot brother
Omg... sooo many packages and sooo many graphic cards.. my heart and my thoughts are with you guys, that is an incredible amount of work for you guys to do, my biggest respect!!! nd thanks a lot for sharing the videos, I learned a lot due to your videos and I am always excited on new stuff. Best wishes from Germany, Michael
Thank you for this upload : you worked like a *HERO* on this board. We need more people with your skill in the board repair business. Keep doing what you do!
I'm 23, A Gamer & I've recently stumbled upon your Videos & Enjoy them a lot man! Never thought i'd enjoy these types of videos but again thanks again all the way from Guelph!
I've forgotten how stressfull this job can be...
I've been servicing eletronics like for 10 years and I can understand this guy.
Working hours and hours resolving problem with no result.
Boss is angry because you're not productive,you're stressed because you can't find the error and It's just one of those days.
For me the best option was looking into schematics and with measurments trying to find the failure.
But the time and lack of schematics is allways a problem.
Does anyone knows the name of this man,he's really nice and I like his "outland" accent,he speaks Slavic like me for sure :D
he's arab, ali
We never get bored of Alex jobs…and his amazing talent and his experience…many videos I have seen are shot videos but am happy he uploaded an 50min videos…thank you Brother Alex…
Excelente video! Gracias a tí no solo estoy aprendiendo mas sobre electrónica, también estoy aprendiendo inglés, gracias a tu pronunciación clara y entendible!
Muchas Gracias!!!
If it was easy every one could do it. Mashallah good job.
everyone could do it ? are you kidding me boy ?
@@MYTechFiX He actually wrote "if" it was easy, everyone could do it. Chill man! :)
This was a real eyeopener, this video cooled down my level of excitement, down to the level where I just dropped the idea of starting an electronics repair business..
Don't worry about it, you put the time in you have it's a slow day/s repair job. it's just a feedback loops from something else on the board causing it to reblow most likely the apu.
@@astroman5923: Yup, a SLOW-DAY repair. But NF has no slow days. I know it killed him to call it off because he knows that all he needs is time.
why drop the idea just modify :) i buy all requirments to do repairs as a hobby i got everything for around 200€ and repair all types of console.
its a lot of work and time to fix electronics
Great video! No one can say you didn't try hard enough on this one! Love watching a master at work.
Nunca veo nadie hablar español, te dejo mis saludos eres un gran maestro!
@Nanbito oye eres de las consolas portátiles o es una cuenta fake?
Tambien me gustan sus videos
@@sabadotarde4 ya somos mas poco a poco
no reemplaces mas piezas solo inyecta 1Volt en la salida del Moffet y usa la Termo Cam
Damn nice…over 50mins of northridgefix…i have to watch it now.👍👏
Very good Job like always . Best regards from Poland :)
i'm an electromechanical engineering student , and every day i'm learning something new from your videos that i will never learn in college ! thank you for your effort and i hope you will continue with this kind of videos , good luck
You don't know how much this helps me in vacuum cleaner and sewing machine repair. Thank you.
I have permanent arthritis having my fingers crossed, hoping that you'd get that working. Atleast we got to see you working on it. Very informational video thanks
Your business deserves every penny that you charged to customers for your efforts.
watched all the video , its so frustrating , lucky to have a clear mind and being patient , go ahead bro :)
A classic rabbit hole...Maybe behind there is liquid that shorting pins . It looks like milk in the microscope! Good job man !
you maybe right.
It's awesome that you don't give up until you really have no other choice....you continue to try and figure out what's wrong... if something of mine ever goes bad, I'll be sure to send it to you!
i love that your father switches things on with the recitation of Bismillah :) may the almighty bless you and your family
Big box is my uncle.
what i get from this video, even masters have bad days, thank you very valuable lessons as always
You need to watch out for old soldering iron when you are soldering MOSFET Transistor. Also, inductor, resistor and capacitor around FET can kill it too.
Jobs like this remind me why no fix no fee is not a workable business model .There are some jobs which are BER before the customer presents them . Trying your best and not wanting to be beat unfortunately dose not pay the bills 😊 Great insight into what's involved .
Hi dear congratulations for your professional service, when I found a mosfet in short usually I change the power supply control IC too, sometimes when a mosfet come in short, switching voltages can go to gate and damage the controller supply IC too and when I use used mosfets from donors boards i make a test in these.
Respect for this work that was a nightmare one. Maybe customer is disappointed but to be honest you spent a lot of time and good components and some one has to pay for them. Great job even if not fixed, as someone mentioned there's a time to give up and go to the next repair!
I really appreciate the way u teach. MashAllah. Very good learning even console is not fixed but really good understanding for a new person like me. Hats off to u bro.
Finally a long video... I prefer watching your long videos than any movie
I started a business doing repairs and other things. I have been a auto mechanic for my hole life but I got hurt at work and I had to stop working on cars. You inspire me every day and I wanted to thank you. I really need one of them microscopes but I am struggling right now and cannot afford one yet but the second I can I am 100% going to be buying one from you.
We get lot of these xbox with light beep no power issues. Thus is what I have found my research. I removed APU soldered on another working board and console had same issue I think it's dead apu unless it is linked to something that doesn't let it boot.
What a repair, I learned a lot from you after my master from 20 years ago, thanks for saving our time to repair.🎉🎉🎉
Working mainly on analogue audio amplifiers it was simple to develop a test-jig which protected repairs from re-destruction by overlooked/not yet found faults. The variety and complexity of what you fix would make that impractical I guess.
Great work even when repair is not possible.
One question: Wouldnt be faster if you use the thermal camera after first attempt?
Keep up the good work.
Goodnight you are very best technician,i'm italian technician,and in your videos i see the solution for repair console,thank you man,beautyful video
Man you do amazing work. There are no new GPUs available to buy, people have to get them fixed nowadays or do without, or pay ridiculous scalping prices. But everything about what you do is good. Helping to keep electronics and precious metals from the landfills. And giving people another option besides buying overpriced new electronics.
your youtube face meme haha!!
Thanks for the video game repair videos. I am an unemployed electronics technician looking for a job. Some companies want someone who can troubleshoot and repair digital boards. There are no videos on the internet that show the repair of combinational and sequential troubleshooting and repair of digital boards. I watch your site because you fix digital-video-game boards.
9:30 It looks like it's flooded, but it's not. This is leftover from factory production. The serviceman should know about it.
You make good job. 👍
This is the one I've been waiting for. Have one on my bench that's been giving me trouble.
Similar symptom (on/off), but mine stays on a bit longer. No short to GND on any of the fets. No visible damage. I hate to say that I think yours might be the APU.
Man.. you are well appreciated my guy. Beyond your videos , you somethin else . Fees plus tip, plus Labor . stack em up 💯
Fix or No fix.Always enjoy watching.Still got some knowledge on trouble shooting and diagnosting.Thank you for this video.
I think it's super cool that read us multimeter readings out loud, or you show the display of that fluke.
I really LOVE this long troubleshooting videos. Sad that finally u couldnt get it working. Grettings from Spain. Keep the good work!! Awesome channel
That's a High Level Frustration right there but still you continued to fix it. What a Warrior.
I fix electronics too (Personal devices/electronics) but i get frustrated easily resulting for me to give up.
Love these longer videos. Slowly learning from you I wanna try this out soon
Total respect to you! Methodical approach as always. Board has probably been subjected to previous damage which is now invisible
Quite elegant Mr. Big Boss 🎩
I knew you were an Arab, because you speak aggressively 😊😊😊 I do to...
Amazing work .. I am learning a lot from you. I like the way you speak what you are thinking and it is very helpful to understand the process
Even though it’s not a fix!! But you are the best “Hero warrior” in electronics repair ever
Well done as in showing the costomers the struggle we have. Love your videos and I'm always smiling. I have the problem as In I spend days fault finding with no joy problem then if it's not repaired they won't pay for your time
I also work in the Automotive diagnostic tests same problem they think we have a magic stick lol
Love your Camera scope wish I had one here in the UK keep up the good work nice to see people doing well, and not giving up..
i used to change lots of caps on the xbox360 , exactly the same ones you replaced , those 2 big ones , and while replacing them many times happened that they get shorted out, those are really too sensitive to heat , seems the same story with xbox one
this kind of video we r searching for a long time bro,,,luv u now
Truth will set you free and that's TRUTH. Keep up the good work
Visual inspection* sorry had to.... also gotta say love the videos! Just started watching and learning alot from you
Keep up the great work. As an electronics engineer for 30 years, one can not work on a board without a good microscope. Just a note though. It's called a visual inspection, and not a physical inspection. but I get what you mean. during your visual inspection, you are looking for physical clues.
I did not start watching yet but I will watch very soon. Looking forward to a long Northridge Fix video!
Nice problem solving, this video is good to see as not everything is a fix with limited time available. Thumbs up.
Before replace the IC driver why do you not measure the signal to the mosfet and the converter output resistance ? it would save you a lot of wasted time
Best suspense video I've seen all month! Your effort was very inspiring. Can you tell me what soldering iron & bent tip you use in this video? Wow, how frustrating, been there, glad to see it doesn't just happen to me! A lesson on 'Patience'. All those expedite repairs.... no pressure😳
It kinda looks like something has gotten into the PCB layers, visible at 24:26 around the center component.
Nice to see you doing the now fixing to, and the time it’s taking too trying 👍🏻
Nice to see BigBoss 👍👍👍....this video shows that you are honest with your work no matter if its no fix....
Good stuff bro just found you page as I’m having the same issue. Thanks for showing everything in detail man, and extreme dedication
Mansha Allah- You got booming business due your excellent troubleshooting skills and fixing.You deserve it. Keep it up.
A 50 minute video?! 😍 also, I love how many packages you get lol 😄
The world's best teacher
Great repair attempt! We were all curious to know the outcome of this fix attempt each time you pressed the power button.
Your perseverance is commendable👍👍
Thank you for taking the time to make a longer video. I hope it didn't cost you time with the fam D:
Main part of life is failure, not success. Thank you for sharing.
You still make it look easy. Excellent videos! Keep em coming!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thanks sir that was so usefull keep going sir
Alex i thought i had patience but you beat me by a long way. Thanks for some amazing videos
You serve as great inspiration too many...the technical term for what your doing i think is called ...killing it man, killing it.. ;-) ...How does your marketing work?....word of mouth only + youtube ? if so that's amazing..as i see you have a small one man operation and there are normally too many of these repair stores..which tend to struggle with staying afloat in this disposable society.....you are from Cuba right? I got my first PC in 1987/88...first games console in 84...peak of my career for me was project manager, and senior field service engineer, team lead in IT/Networking, 2014...i was a surface mount, debug technician for Compaq.94/98..right when the internet was blowing up in UK...so it's amazing to see how things have advanced...all we had were wiring diagrams and experience back then....the good old DOA's...i went from apprentice PC build/tester to debug technician and staff trainer..in 3 years...in your last video about life/career philosophy you were spot on...i admire your outlook..experience is everything ...the door swings both ways ..the bigger companies use and abuse too often..but i got what i needed from my earlier career..and taught me how to deal with people...certain jobs, leave certain impressions..keep up the amazing work my friend......Psa-.Scotland..
Im sure every video i saw i learned a lot with you. This one at least serves for show how hard is sometimes and still teaching us technicians. Thanks for share.
Wow what an amazing video. I really have to thank you for that. Thank you.
That was a real tough nut…so many mosfets you had to replace. You are right, you invested so much time in this board, it has to go to an end. You have more and more things that has to be done and fixed. And again so many grfx-card came in…unbelievable.
But it would be interesting what’s the problem with this board.
Thank you for this really long video and the work „behind the scenes“ its a real hard job solving those problems.
Greets from austria
Congrats on the subs. You deserve it. Very interesting channel.
Hi,I like watching fix video's,and i have to say even though you didn't fix this one.IT WAS A GREAT VIDEO.It shows the steps you normally take{in this case 3 times?}haha.The thing is ...WE your audience ARE LEARNING from your difficulty's.I think average video junkies watch a 10 minute video where the person does a quick fix and thinks ,wow that was easy ,I CAN DO THAT!!But this shows just how complex trouble shooting can be.Thank you for having the guts to show us,Sometimes you just don't win.
To be so busy with a year queue. Amazing work and business you deserve every bit.
I will define it in a single word: unforgettable (for me). Thank you very much sir for sharing.
