"The Board is Begging me to use a Wire..."🤣
It's a proper callibrated one so it's fine 😂
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

The Highest Lvl of repairment i've ever seen on Sorin's channel. Welldone Sir Sorin.
Bro you haven't seen the ASUS desktop motherboard with a missing component he repaired some time back,it was insane
Agree. Best repair ever !
sorin does not have enough subscribers for this kind of high level repair.you wont find many of these kinds of technicians.thanks sorin.
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.
Customer don't know what was done to the board.
@@Struktualnyjat least customer can say it's been to other shop or someone tried to repair it
@@maklogetrich2378 he wrote that it was in another shop and they tried to replace the mosfet but failed in repair.
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!!
because of a hardjob I watched all ads without skipping
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. You’ve spent a lot of time and therefore money too, but also you have highlighted the pain of taking on stuff that has been butchered before. Still, you did it ! Thanks for sharing your journey
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.
@@orange11squaresyou just say “sorry can’t be fixed”
@@moldo8811 interesting , might be a good way out without to much details.
Well in this case customer lied
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.
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.
Heartiest congratulations. It is as if we are repairing together with you.
If i were you I'd ask the customer for more money because it's your right 1st he told you (no one worked on it before) when clearly someone did, and 2nd you fixed the blown up fuse on the battery's board 3rd you've unlocked the battery and lastly you've charged the Bios battery (which no one do such a thing) and MOST IMPORTANTLY YOU'VE SPEND A LOT OF TIME {And Like They Say TIME IS MONEY} IT'S NOT GREED IT'S YOUR RIGHT AND LIKE I SAID IF I WERE YOU I'D HAVE TAKEN MORE MONEY ON THE REPAIR
By The Way I'm 32 years old and i work with phones but it's not making me that much money and I'm not greedy like my fellow coworkers so I'm learning FROM YOU how to fix laptops too [SO THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR AND GOD BLESS YOU EVERY SECOND] THANKS AGAIN
This board has not been worked on is understatement. This board was used as a one night stand by previous cowboy.
so i watched the full video. im impressed you have so much patience. i am also in the field of electronics repair, but that was such a mess. props to you for reviving this device. well done
So much energy deployed. Thank you 🙏
Thought for a second the next video would start with “ok, so today we have a proper nice microscope”.
I’m still wondering what he did with the pliers 🤣🤣
😂
😂
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.
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
Love your video
We learn a lot form u

BIG regard for uncle!
Real King.
Really this laptop is a very hard job but with your patience you have done it. Excellent work 🎉
You have good patience with your customers.
Long and tricky one, but what a satisfaction in the end!!! Amazing job👏🏻👏🏻
Bravo Sorin for you tenacity, humility and determination! Thank you for sharing!
I think this is one of the best videos in your collection! Congratulations Sorin!
That was an absolute adventure! Lot of things learned. Thanks!
perfect calibrated fuse, Mr. Sorin thank you so much..
Dude your a laptop genius! Love your videos!
Bravo Sorin. We know you loose time, but we like to watch challenging repairs like this one. Quick repairs with shorted caps are boring to watch.
Great Job Master ! High end level repair, as always . Cheers !
Very clever fellow ,as the board had many problems ,Well done .
Sorin, Great job as always.
This one was a wild ride. Real interesting - thanks for sharing
Great video a lot to learn i recommend it. Thank you sorin.
Great job albeit learned from mistakes and your perseverance to success. Humble in the process and good learning for all.
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
thank you for the knowledge you've share to us master tech.
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.
excellent video - loved the fact that the board had Master Sorin's trousers down lol - More of these difficult ones please buddy.
Wow Sorin you certainly know your stuff, I really enjoyed the video thank you so much 😊
Simply wonderful
you're a magician 😮 what an amazing job 👍
Great job Sorin!
great job , we need more like this video
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
Thank you so much for this video, realy interesting.
Hahaha Sorin should never retire, you make my day lol, this Board is begging me😂😂😂😂
Thank you master sorin
Good job mate
Amazing video
Nice video!!! Thank you
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.
Great educational video taking on a laptop already worked on. Never see charging of the non rechargeable bios battery before😀See you on the next one.
@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 🇵🇹 🌟
Bravo Sorin ❤❤
Great Job Sir. Love for Bhutan
that screw shorted on mainboard, that's very very often seen on lenovo notebooks
great Job !
god of repair, gj sorin you win 💪
Amazing, great, great, great work!
Ahahaha you kill me with "Here is a perfectly calibrate fuse !"
Repairs with too many faults factors are very difficult to tackle. good job.
just a hard job ! with no "we have picture !" to make you smile :-)) you are the best
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.
wonderful job...
wow this one you doing great..👏👏👏 this one is the best challenging fix...your the best..👏👏👏 best 🍕 pizza 🍕 ever ...
thank you,
good job
17:19 LOL! Thanks for the laugh Sorin!
Now this is a proper electronic repair job. 😁
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.
Hello🤝OMG insane repair master it's only one Sorin👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋👋👋👋🍕
Don't mean to insult you but circuit is pronounced SIRKIT not sirquit.
Thanks for sharing your work 👍🇬🇧
Great Lesson @1:05:00 about DOUBT setting in. Bear this in mind.
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 :)))
:)))))) I was waiting for the "perfect calibrated fuse".
That was an adventure
Very well Job , Waww🔥
It always happens that a job that took 10 minutes to solve (as in the video of that HP laptop with loose pins on the SODIMM channel) would turn into another job that takes hours to solve and fix.
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!
Yessss, i like loong videos.
Sorin to Micriscope - Say hello to my little friend 💀
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
proper hard job
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.
Ok this is a nice laptop with top notch quality
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?
Hello. What do you do if screws are stuck not turning?
Come on Sorin, we have a rule "do not use a screw if you can use a wire" :))
I think you should introduce a charge for laptop that has been repaired before especially if the customer says that it hasn't been
am new generation laptop repair good job orgi love from somalia
Boss from the beginning it was wrong to charge a LENOVO battery without id pin from the charger and was not charging cuz the fuse from battery then the second mosfet that what burn the BQ chip cuz you fix the battery fuse already that what make the whole confusen , As always thank you very much we learn from you evey time 💐💐
34:05 the moment when the cip exploded and made a hole?:D
Eid Mubarek ❤
Eid Mubarak! :))
Eid Mubarek brothers and sisters 💓
sorin with rosin
Some circuits are designed such, you can not fault trace it 😊
41:55 maybe because that shorted second mosfet is shorted so I guess that BQ chip is blown due to mosfet is shorted.
it makes my job much easier when someone else has not worked on it. It's very extremely hard to troubleshoot the problem when someone else has worked on it,
this is the part where I tell the customers I will not touch it.
