    Excellent work. Anyone can simply replace parts, but it takes skill, dedication and patience to repair broken and damaged parts. Then to restore a device to its original working condition with no wastage. Thank you sir.

      yeah this is what i like about Sorin, he reminds me of my step father, who is also electronic engineer, and he doesnt ''replace'' parts when it comes to this situations you always have to cut corners, find solution with a different way without breaking something etc.
      literaly all the expert PC ''technicians'' all they do is replace parts, they even have donor motherboards and just cut pieces and solder them back. but this thing here it takes skill, to fix the pins etc.

    sorin I found a solution for this kind of problem when you have strong adhesive on something fragile use contact spray the one used to clean electronics and it is non conductive the other thing it veporise so quickly and when it comes in contact with adhesive it breaks it down so fast it is like magic you spray a little wait a few seconds and spray some more and the thing is out
    hope you see my comment it will make my day to know I helped you

    Sorin!
    Great job on ALL your repairs!
    I learn something every time I watch your videos.
    I'm an old IBM EE Technician in IBM Endicott's Circuit Packaging MFG. campus from 1974-2002.
    I retired in 2002 at age 53 with 28 years in the company.
    I built my own Desktop PC (IBM PC compatible 386) in 1990 out of parts I retrieved from IBM's garbage dumpsters and also from parts I ordered through the "Computer Shopper" magazine in those days.
    I've been watching your videos for about 3 weeks.
    You are great! And I like that you care about your customers enough to make sure they are happy!
    You're a good man, Sorin!
    I'm subscribed to your channel and I like most if not all your videos.
    Thank you for teaching an old dog (me) new tricks and laughing through it when things sometimes, get bad.
    I really appreciate your sense of humor.
    You always bring a smile to my face when I hear you say, "Look! We have Picture! That's crazy...that's insane!"

    Great work Sorin. One adjustment I would make to get the screen out from the rear glue is using a very thin wire from right to left and sliding it down, cutting the glue as you go. A bit like a cheese-cutting wire, also the same method as removing car windscreens from the outer bound. It works well. Thanks

    I also as you have been using glue gun melting material for decades for this and similar purposes.
    It is especially suitable to create a mold for casting into a certain shape, e.g. cylindrical so that the transition from the connector to the cable looks almost like the original and maybe use black melting material for this purpose :-)

    @IlBiggo Рік тому

    A bit of Apple knowledge 🍏: whenever you have stuff glued together with adhesive strips, try to grab one end of the strip and pull it slowly. It should stretch and, by consequence, shrink, until it's too thin to stick to the surfaces and it just slips out.

  • @stefan7231
    @stefan7231 Рік тому

    Dear Sorin. One way that you can prevent future breaking of the connector is to put a pencil spring on the cable end and heat shrink or hot glue it :D

    1:20 (info for others): there is a hit mark in the middle down of the back cover(around small holes). And on the mainboard you can see the same smash mark on the heatpipe.
    If you follow that heatpipe to right, close to fan - you see that something is wrong with that heatpipe there. It is squeezed and bended at the end of the motherboard edge.
    And at 32:22 you can see the smashed fins of heatsink in that spot. So..
    ..
    WHEN you see that kind of damages, you have to, as service-technican to do a stress test on the cpu/gpu to check if the heatsink is working fine, because damage on heatpipe can unseal it, which can even stop the proper heat transfer (to radiator) (I had one case like that)
    ..
    Also keep in mind that any punch/hit to that thiny motherboard with cpu/gpu/chipset in one thiny chip, which is soldered to the motherboard by around a thousand of small solderballs under it, it can make some of that balls to be cracked. (that is way, the additional stress load tests, are required)

    I think you would like "Polymorph". It comes in the shape of little white balls/perls that you can buy for a few Euro / Pounds. If you throw it in a glass of 70°C water or heat it with hot air it becomes transparent and you can shape it in any form you want - like dough or Sugru. But once it cools down it gets very hard, solid and white again (you can also color it with pigment parts). If you're not happy heat it up again and fix it. For repairs like the plug it's perfect. I always have a small bag here for repairs and it goes a long way. It's not as sticky as hotglue, but as a "robust shell" it's fantastic to work with.
