    you're sick brother. I love the stuff you are doing. So relevant for me. I constantly check back here as reference. Nice Udiph recovery video you did as well, it's really amazing, and so cool people create those programs. They helped me out of a bind now plenty of times. And I know I have some of these fixes to do as well, so thank you in advance for your knowledge. I fix a lot of games and do some mods, but getting into consoles for real is another beast. I'll be watching plenty of your vids. You rule dude!

    Damn that looks like a lot of work for someone with no soldering experience :0 I think this is the exact issue one I just picked up recently is having, unsure if I wanna take the risk in doing all that, good work though I'm glad to see other people still passionate about saving Wii Us

      You have to start somewhere, and I am still learning a lot too. Make a video on the attempt if you fix it or not and I would watch that and subscribe

    Unfortunately my Wii U does not display on my TV, but I know it is connected and the gamepad works fine along with the console, I’ve tried with multiple TVs and still get the same result, maybe I could try this fix in the video, not sure what screwdriver it uses

    Awesome channel, I love the Wii U. I picked up a white unit pretty cheap a while back. Gamepad works but unfortunately all I get on the console is a blinking blue light. Is that repairable?

      These are just filters. they should just pass straight through. Not sure what they have inside of them though maybe some sort of resistor or something to that effect

    If the video IC chip breaks, there is no composite video with the AV cable either? I have a Wii U without video on both outputs.

    Does the hot air station work at 180ºC or higher? It is a doubt that always comes to me since with some components at that temperature it is impossible for me to remove them and I have to go up to 200ºC or something more. Thank you in advance for your clarification.

    • @niesz
      @niesz  11 місяців тому +1

      I always have to go higher with the hot air, so I would say no at 180 c

      If it lights up blue, then it is working. It could be stuck on composite output, or it could be a bad HDMI plug or cable. I would try the composite output to confirm it is working first.

      @@niesz I tried composite and hdmi with no luck. And I know it's not the hdmi chip, as I "de-fused" the console(the new Wii u mod chip), and was able to get into the minute menu on my tv. So I believe it's actually my nand chip as it's a hynix unit. I'm working on replacing it with a microsd card as we speak
