The fact that you sell everything that a tech needs is revolutionary. I have an adult child that is looking for a new career with a future. Your videos and supplies will feature prominently in that education. Thanks for all your hard work.

    Enjoyed watching this start to finish with an easy repair. As one just starting to learn, I've seen quite a few on chasing down faults, were the video ends without repair, because the "expert" can't fix it, (at least not during the video). It's disheartening and makes me not want to even continue trying to fix my issue which may be minor. Since I don't know enough on how to fix it, and the expert can't do it, why should I try? Thanks for the encouragement to keep learning.

    OMG !!! Went to community college early 80's for electronics tech. Had no idea that the miniaturization of electrical components would result in using electronic microscopes and FLIR cameras to troubleshoot, so cool !! Wonder if there would be a market for some type of laser probe device to take measurements rather than a physical metal probe, lol. Can't wait to see how we fix nano computers, or maybe like everything else, they will be disposable too ???

    5 cent component takes out a whole laptop, and Apples "solution" would have been to replace the whole motherboard - which would have been uneconomic. Almost criminal.

    Hello dear friend, I am writing from Turkey. My computer, model number Macbook Pro A2289, fell to the ground and the topcase part was bent. When I first turned on the computer, there was an image on the screen, then the screen backlight went off. When I asked for repair, they said that it could not be done, so I ordered a topcase and screen backlight cable from China. The backlight and camera are not working. All other functions are active. When I disassembled the computer and checked it, I could not see any damage to the screen backlight flex. I wonder if the problem is in the LCD or the motherboard. I would be very happy if you could inform me. There is an image on the LCD, but the backlight and camera are not working.

    • @rizkhan3368
      @rizkhan3368 Рік тому +3

      well if you want to begin, then use electronic trouble shooting tips just shown here by Alex, the problem trouble shooting always starts with power supply to the said part not working, if that is ok move on to the part itself, like LED screen board or control board, for fast trouble shooting you will need tools that Alex has.

    • @ninjasploit
      @ninjasploit Рік тому

      ​@@rizkhan3368 Thanks for the tips, I don't have all of the equipment Alex has, but I did order some basic equipment to get started with microsoldering.
      I have some of the equipment he has, just lower quality/generic brands so might not be as reliable and good but I hope they'll do the job, no thermal camera though so will have to use some other technique, got some ideas though! I will also need to order whatever components are dead
