that was very hard job, the customer should have said what was done to the board, so you wont confuse yourself and loose precious time... in this repair you needed a lot of tools and knowledge to have it done, without the battery analyzer you probably would have not fixed the laptop, good job master Sorin!
It's comparable to medicine. A new doctor needs to know what has been done previously and why, before ordering new medication or changing existing prescriptions.
What a hard repair! I like your job and your mood: you work slow, using your experience and your brain, without jumping to conclusions. Nice attitude!!
Yes Sorin you will lose when someone worked on the board before, but after watching so many of your video's I think there is a part in Sorin that likes a challnge and doesn't give up easily and it's pretty obvious this part won in todays video. But don't worry there is still plenty of easy pizza's on the laptop repair menu in the future! This one may have cost you time, but it's still a learning experience. Also maybe a tip and try to prepare some contra battery connectors with wires instead of hooking the battery straight on the reader, might save you from having those weird battery pins not properly connecting faults.
I just discovered this channel as I started to do some repairs. I also finally understand why Alex from NF is just good at soldering and not at actual repairs. These videos are cracking me up, you're so good... I love the fact that someone uses the knowlege about electronics while repairing it, not just deeming it as a no fix when something is too hard to understand. Keep up the good work man! 😃
You should noticed the customers (before starting your repair) that if you find evidence of someone previously worked on the laptop the price of the repair will increase, and more, you have video evidence of that so you should be protected. In my case, i would like to know how much time you spend on the repair and be charged acordingly. Nice work 👌
I don't take computers that others have worked on where the repair was not successful. Way too many uncertainties. Fantastic job Sorin! That was the most advanced component level repair I have ever seen! 😮
what if they lie to you and you discover after they leave, you tell them that you discovered someone worked before, and they say you lie. Problematic indeed.
Wow, what a battle. Been watching for well over a year now and am constantly impressed with your tenacity and ingenuity. Really enjoyed the breakdown at the end.

Great repair work Sorin. I was happy you got the job done after spending so much time. Your patience and attitude towards completing this repair is something to admire. Your videos inspire alot. Thank you.
Great job Sorin. It wasn't that long ago when you used the battery analyzer and it also messed up the pins and was giving you problems diagnosing why it wasn't charging.
This time the laptop was dodging the repair. Hard one indeed, the battery analyser was also necessary this time. Proper calibrated job Sorin! Well done
I have this laptop, it's a beast and gets hotter than my oven even with a fan spinning like an airplane engine! First day of using it the BIOS update killed the machine completely and had to send it back for repairs.

A very interesting video, thank you. That's the thing with these tricky faults: I understand that you are getting frustrated considering how little money you can charge for this job. But for your UA-cam-channel, it might be a good thing. The video is more interesting and you can show off your skills. I hope this video is going to do well.
Well done, Sorin. Very interesting case. I was surprised that you did not focus on the loose track near the battery charging MosFet and didn't even glue it back to the board and possibly put some solder on it. Also, a BIOS battery replacement would have been good. But still, a hard case.
A learning curve you must remember. I took 3 weeks to fix an issue no other could solve, and got the same job 12 yrs later. Couldn't fix it because I forgot.
I am glad you fix it i watched the hole vídeo.. no Wonder the chop gave up.. also i bet it feals good that you have fixe it.. saying that i was in london last may went to a repair store they had your vídeos on the lCD brilhante ..wish you well
very good video Sorin! You can analyze the device before giving a price, and charge a repair attempt fee, in cases like this where someone has already attempted repairs on this device, it is up to the customer to decide to risk the repair.
Great detective work and hopefully you replaced the "properly calibrated battery fuse" with a boring uncalibrated but proper fuse. These kind of customer issues are easiest to resolve ahead of time. Inform the customer ahead of time that flat rate depends on the condition that it had not been worked on previously and if previous work is discovered the customer will be contacted to decide either the labor rate becomes an hourly charge (with a cap) or the laptop is returned without attempt to repair.
@sorin One the beginning you should check if on input circuit on the MOSFETs if 2 the gates has continued, and then you will realize that the 2 MOSFETs was channel N, because the two gates was link 🔗 together. That was you first mistake... 😅 And the job will be much shorter... Thanks for sharing your knowledge... greattings from Portugal 🇵🇹 🌟
good work Sorin, BUT what about RTC/bios battery at 1:00:25 ? you left it empty, on a expensive gaming laptop? now the client will deal with cleared bios settings all the time? That battery should be replaced (if this is a standard battery) or charging circuit should be fixed (if this is a chargeable battery and the circuit is not charging). LOL
Most times I will always check charging mosfet and charger chip when no charging. I want that battery checker thou, it's just too much for the amount of batteries I would need to repair. As for previous work jobs, I do a bench check (charge a fee) and usually NO, if the re-work was bad or charge extra!
Try to use spring probe, on that MBL for battery. Terminals are too big obviously, if you can get those probes they have springs and will not damage any connector. You can use literally clothespin, to catch connector from battery and put probe on it.
Hi, definetely it is best always to call customer and tell about findings like previus repairs to avoid any issues and also disguss the price for the job and extra risks. Every single customer trying to make it cheapest and will go much more dodgy than just using a wire :)))
If number on the MOSFET is ending on 2,4,6,8 then it's a channel N, if is on 1,3,5,7,9 then it's a channel P MOSFET
We know that. My guess is Sorin though the previous shop, fitted the wrong mosfet

Hey boss, great video, amazing skills and yes you should charge more- people will pay for knowledge
A tip on hownto handle pricing in such situations
We own a repair shop and we never provide a quoted to the customer prior to final diagnoztics
Yes- you need to work hard to find out if it's fixable or not but only once we are 90% sure we can fix a motherboard we will contact the customer with pricing
To begin with- we always give a range foe pricing and explain that price difference is in time and parts we need to replace
Customers do understand especially when the computer price is expensive- they rather pay 200-600$ then buying a 2000$ laptop or more
U r too humble, and should start enjoying yiyr skills
Time is money
As simple as it sounds
U can do 10-15 repairs per month and receive laptops from all around the world
Save the energy on customer that don't like to pay, have more time off and more money per repair
U deserve much more respect
Cheers boss

Bravo Sorin for you tenacity, humility and determination! Thank you for sharing!
This board has not been worked on is understatement. This board was used as a one night stand by previous cowboy.

time stamp 53:00 The BQ24780s does not supply input mosfets with gate voltage it`s done by the ThinkEngine chip, The bq24780s is only for charging
yeah also he had still 3.8v with the new BQ, is it possible that chip detects if mosfet is off the board and it wont send the signal driving it?
just a hard job ! with no "we have picture !" to make you smile :-)) you are the best
