I dare to say I have watch maybe 95% of your videos. Thanks to you I start learning electronic repair and microsoldering with different devices. Right now I received customer to perfomance PS5 repair in my country and I have been successful till now. God bless you
The PS5 arrived with many defects, your way of getting to the defects was fantastic. I'm always following and learning from your way of working, thank you
Another saved from what was a junk pile, if it could be fixed then you would be the one to do it, nice fix. I think you did have two issues and solved both. Thank you for the video and the time you put into giving us great content to watch. I find your videos so relaxing.
Wow! That one was a rabbit hole. You need to report that seller. Sorry you had to deal with that. Bright side, you turned it around nicely and scored a free game. Great work! :)
Seeing the state of that console I felt a bit sick (LOL) but the success of the repair was an effective antiemetic. Great job but I am kind of sceptical about the WiFi module. Perhaps one day you could try it on another board for fun. 😊
This has "My friend is an engineer he said he can fix it" written all over it. Being on 4.50 that is pretty rare and worth quite a bit (not for much longer with the upcoming jailbreak for up to 7.6x though).
I really learn a lot from your videos and I absolutely love them! Great job and videos as always. Have you ever tried to do any Xbox series x for your videos or in general?
Thank you! I have worked on some X-Box One S but I've only worked on one Series X. I don't know much about them. I should probably give it a try. I started out working on PS4s and I just kind of stuck with Play Stations.
@@ToltecMerc That's understandable! I look forward to your next repair video, and hopefully in the near future if you do decide to give an xbox series x a try, I hope you get a real interesting one :)
Excellent revival yet again. What a botched together eBay special though. Some people really don’t have any decency to at least be halfway transparent. Sad, really.
They don’t make them like they used too (ps4) I just think I killed a slim, EDM 040, think I shorted something after testing voltages after watching computer booted and think I might help by seeing what’s going on in the particular circuit of a SBV chip, anyway no I got the 2nd Blod, probably killed the APU. 💩 happens, such is life.
Petite question personnelle et qui na aucun rapport avec la video ... Quelle étude avez vous fait pour en savoir autant sur l'électronique? J'adorerais savoir faire tout ça ! 👌
I did go to a small community college to study electronics where I earned an Associates Degree. After that, I worked 28 years for a local television station an an engineer. I still work in a related filed. Electronics have always been a hobby of mine and not just a job. I enjoy it and I am constantly working on things. The more your do, the more you learn.
@@ToltecMerc totally understand, it’s Russian roulette, out of the 4 I have purchased on eBay only one had the seal intact. I’m hoping to have some success so thanks for all your videos. They are really helpful guidance.
The anchor points are through-hole resistor leads that were cut and collected from another project. I have several small drawers of them and they work well for me.
hey, could you give me some advice, i tried everything on the internet, and still no luck, my ps5 slim disk edition always crash playing every game, but smooth on ui, need your help tq.

Congratulations! It is very satisfying to bring items back to life!
Based on the Frankenstein collection of parts I didn't think that one was coming back from the dead! Excellent work!
I got lucky! It was a lot of mismatched parts. Thanks for watching and commenting!
The PS5 arrived with many defects, your way of getting to the defects was fantastic. I'm always following and learning from your way of working, thank you
Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it. More to come!
I never cease to be amazed at the PS5s you can bring back from the dead! Amazing repair once again!
Thank you so much! I do enjoy the challenge of making something work that is no longer usable.
Dam whoever took that apart and put it back together was brain dead..
Good video btw🎉
Yeah it was a mess. I seem to get those. That's the risk you take with eBay. Thanks for the visit!
Another saved from what was a junk pile, if it could be fixed then you would be the one to do it, nice fix. I think you did have two issues and solved both. Thank you for the video and the time you put into giving us great content to watch. I find your videos so relaxing.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy them so much!
I always get such a warm welcome starting your videos :) I hate when I get a console that was clearly thrown together from broken parts
I hate it as well. I've had it a few times over the years. It happens. It's part of the game.
Great work! Thanks for taking us along!
Thank you! My pleasure!
Wow! That one was a rabbit hole. You need to report that seller. Sorry you had to deal with that. Bright side, you turned it around nicely and scored a free game. Great work! :)
I'm glad you enjoyed! It was a happy ending!
Awesome job, love seeing you diagnose
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy!
great repair, another "junk" ps5 back to play
Thank you! She is back from the edge of death!
At first i thought you would find something broken but what a surprise it got saved🎉
I was finally awarded for all the struggle. Thanks for watching!
@@ToltecMerc i know the feeling after struggling to fix something haha thank you for the video.
The shady ebay weasels strike again. Too bad you had to use your own case. Great Repairs and Video! Thank You.
I had it laying around. It was good to get some use out of it. Thanks for stopping by!
that was a great work with those Lego pieces lol.
Thanks! It was a puzzle to be solved!
Amazing and great work ! Top Job !
Thank you very much! I'm just glad there are people in the world who enjoy my content.

I did save the WiFi module. It is marked "?".
Nice job, and an old fw version ps5, well deserved
Thank you so much!
well another one saved from the dead great video
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!
This has "My friend is an engineer he said he can fix it" written all over it.
Being on 4.50 that is pretty rare and worth quite a bit (not for much longer with the upcoming jailbreak for up to 7.6x though).
EBay VERY special lol😂
It was quite special and in need of much love! Thanks for stopping by Tony!

Whew 😮💨 smartest tech in the world!!
Aww, thanks Sarah!
Another challenge goddamn. Maybe ask more photos to get a better picture of the seller?
True! It doesn't happen often but occasionally I get piles of junk like this.
wow you did an excellent job❤❤
Thank you! I'm glad you think so!
Excellent revival yet again. What a botched together eBay special though. Some people really don’t have any decency to at least be halfway transparent. Sad, really.
Thank you very much! Sadly, this is the world we live in.
Nice revival!
Thank you!
Holy Shit, this one got destroyed and I’m only in for a few minutes
It was a little rough around the edges.
Im surprised the WiFi chip worked. You had one pad with only one solder ball. Might fail in the future. Nice fix though. Started from a pile of junk.
I thought the same thing and rewatched it, that pad loads with solder before the second ball melts, they look even when melted too.
I believe you are correct! I missed one!
I bet the wifi error was because that part of the board looked like it was resting on the heat sink.
It is possible. There was a lot of rough handling.
Good job mate 👏
Good work
Thank You!
Do you bother leaving negative feedback on these eBay specials? This one is really hacked together
I don't usually. I probably should although it's hard to know if the seller knew the condition or not. Sadly, they probably did though.
wow nice repair also nice firmware :-)
Thanks! It was a nice surprise in the box of junk!
ELITE.
Thanks Joey!
Great job! What was that advertised as, no power or spares or repair?
No Power/Not working/Parts or Repair Only
Way more than way into it if is a big board in a 12XX
Yep. I have seen this before. Wrong board for the chassis. I've even seen them trim the plastic in the case to make them fit.
They don’t make them like they used too (ps4)
I just think I killed a slim, EDM 040, think I shorted something after testing voltages after watching computer booted and think I might help by seeing what’s going on in the particular circuit of a SBV chip, anyway no I got the 2nd Blod, probably killed the APU. 💩 happens, such is life.
Well that sucks!
Do you check the firmware versions? Ps5 with 7.61 or lower can bring some extra cash on the table
I showed the version in the video. It was on 4.50!
@@ToltecMerc happy days🤑

eBay? Sounds dodgy if they sold it as a faulty PS5, it’s much more than that.
Yes eBay. I get machines like this from time to time. It's the nature of the business.
@@ToltecMerc totally understand, it’s Russian roulette, out of the 4 I have purchased on eBay only one had the seal intact.
I’m hoping to have some success so thanks for all your videos. They are really helpful guidance.
15:02 You have placed only one ball on one contact.
You are correct! Oops.
@@ToltecMerc Today we learned that it still works, that's great. 💪
What size wire is used for anchor points?
The anchor points are through-hole resistor leads that were cut and collected from another project. I have several small drawers of them and they work well for me.
Great work. I’ve got a failed PS5 main board. How can we connect to discuss a repair?
Where can I buy this for that low low 4.50 firmware?
It is listed on eBay now.
❤
Thank you!
How much did you pay for this junk ps5? And are you willing to tell the eBay seller?
I paid $192.60. I won't mention the seller but I don't think he regularly sells PS5s.
Do you offer repairs for people?? I bought off ebay and can't figure out what's wrong with the thing 🙃
helo bwe how many years working
I have been using BwE software for a few years now. I bought the PS5 software as soon as it was released.
hey, could you give me some advice, i tried everything on the internet, and still no luck, my ps5 slim disk edition always crash playing every game, but smooth on ui, need your help tq.
This could be a RAM problem. All the RAM would likely need to be replaced.
@@ToltecMerc thanks for your reply. Will be doing that way.
First 😂😂😂
Absolutely first!
@@ToltecMercRelatively inconsequential though. 🤪
