After wrestling with a stripped screw for over half an hour, I decided to get a bigger tip screwdriver since the space got larger on the screw head and applied a lot of pressure while turning "the pressure helps getting better grip of the mess" and it worked!!!!! 😊 Never give up people! You can do it! Edit: I'm so glad this worked for some of you too! ^^
I might use WD40 and try using this screwdriver, my 2007 PS3 needs to be cleaned out and has 2 stuck screws and I stripped them because of it, so I’d use WD40 to loosen up the screw and this kit to unscrew it
@@w0lf4llo84 I would like to hear your opinion. I would like to open up the fat ps3 , but I screw up some years ago and destroy the very first screw, so I can't even open up the up case. Do you believe with this kit maybe it will work ?
Ok I see a lot of bad-mouthing here and I get it, but this worked for me. If anyone is here regarding Nintendo 3DS XL screws, then this works (but not right away). I had to drill a little into the screw (not enough to remove it, but enough to make the divot large enough to reach the edges). Then, the trick in the video works by having the divot closer to the edge so you can turn from the circumference of the screw. Good luck to y'all
Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to get into one of my joycons with stripped screws for months, tried many different methods, and this was the one that worked. I can confirm that these tools can unscrew tight screws, and screws in deep holes. It might take some time and force to do so, but its better than nothing.
I have the same problem. Trying to change the backplate of my switch. 3 of the screws wouldn't come off 😭😭 i bought this even though it costs for about $50 bucks at Amazon 😬 then bought new screws for the switch seperately. I hope this works 😥
What happened with me was the skyward sword joy cons were being scalped so i said fuck them. Theres companies selling coppies of the shell so ill do that. I sis the first 1 just fine but the scond one i failed. I put one of the ribbon cables in the wrong way so the sholder buttons dont work. When re assembling i steipped a screw so i cant open it again. I will try this.
Thanks a million for sharing this technique. I had been messing around with my f’d up screw for a few days and couldn’t get it done. I found a similar screwdriver at home , applied the same technique to it and the magic happened. I am totally relieved now. 😮💨

How to remove small stripped screw from electronics: Buy a specialized tool to remove small stripped screw from electronics. I've never thought about that.
I just got a similar set from iFixIt, and it managed to remove an extremely stripped screw in about as bad of a situation as you can possibly imagine short of the screw head being ripped off or something. Not only was it fully stripped (with zero visible notches), but I had made one ill-advised attempt to remove it using super-glue that just sealed it in there even further. But with a *lot* of elbow grease and the iFixIt extractor, used as described in this video (along the edge of the screw), I finally managed to remove it. Was a big relief, because I was fully expecting it not to work after making zero progress with any other method.
@@DARK_AMBIGUOUS If you have the sort of precision extractor tools in this video, he only real advice I can think of is that you'll probably have to press really hard while trying to turn the screw (and it can take a number of tries to find the right angle; I just kept trying to get a grip on the edge of the screw with the extractor until something worked). Otherwise you just have to turn to the left while aligning the notch in the extractor with the edge of the screw (which is now more like a circle due to being stripped), like shown in this video.
The screw looks like it was already loose but not grabbing. Don't use for tight screws that won't move. I did the corner thing first, and then the middle and neither worked. I check the Amazon sales page, and immediately noticed several warning that it may not work. 🤦♂️
I mean - yeah, that's an option. but if you have a soldering gun + solder and a cheap/throwaway screw driver you can just solder the tip of the screw driver into the stripped screw and unscrew it from there. renders the screwdriver & screw useless after that, but it'll get it out.
actually tried it > worked and still managed to remove the soldering iron after using it i just bash the tip of the screwdriver at a solid wall and wait for the soldering iron to crack and pop out maybe because the screw driver i have is so hard (its in fact way too heavy for it size) that i can slam it really hard and only damage the wielded metal and not the driver itself
The point is that these are electronics with small delicate components. Like im watching this video because my dumbass assembled my beats studio 3s wrong. All i had to do was fold in the side i wanted to work on and tighten the screw instead of struggling in an angle and ending up stripping the tiny screw. Now the way its angled and hidden will %100 forsure melt, fuck up anything heat would touch.
@@Rabiiid a glue might work like super glue (but the residue might mess it up if the glue is heavy on areal residue) sometimes its just messed up and the component you have a busted screw is also delicate which leaves you to no option at all one of my busted screw is on my laptop's motherboard which is impossible to do brute force i found a small way around it but im not sure if it works on everything everytime i clean my laptop's interior of dust i just occasionally try to unscrew it (avoiding to break the grooves more by pressing hard, i was lucky that the screw that is busted have a good ground underneath it so the risk of breaking the board is low) slowly it actually lose and now i can clean it completely IDK in your case sometimes its just too delicate to even try bust a screw out

I took it there and was takin care of quick and they got it out in seconds. but I will purchase that tool showed on the video in case this happens again.
@@David-zj5ow Hey David, he got it out first by trying with some tool and it wasn't working for him then he used some tool that looked like pliers but it had a nose longer than the other.
Just wanted to say that this works. Was getting ready to bad mouth this guy after trying and failing but I tried for a little more and it worked. I think this is actually the only video with this information that I could find. My screws were especially fucked because I I thought stripping them more with my drill would help me get them out with a different tool. That didn't work. You might need to fiddle around for a while but you'll get the screw out with this technique. For what it's worth I was trying to open the bottom of a macbook air from like 2015. Good luck!
If you can get it on the edge of the screw, it should work. But the Switch screws are somewhat recessed in the console backing... not sure if they have enough room to fit.
does the screw need to be completely stripped like that for this to work? because i watched the entire video and am using the tool how you said but it still won’t loosen at all
I have a two thousand dollar laptop opened up right in front of me right now, with liquid metal waiting to be applied, let me go and order this kit real quick and wait a week to get it delivered what a wonderful tip

This did not work for me. My screw has been stuck for so long, its on the motherboard for my laptop and it is super small and extremely stripped, its filled with super glue and it also is almost flush with the circuit board, it was put on extremely tight. I tried every size of screw driver, I tried the rubber band method, I tried supergluing the screwdriver onto the screw, I tried literally everything, someone please help, I'm too scared to drill it out and it's flush so I cannot cut it with a dremal, is there any other alternatives? Please please help anyone.
But what if it is in one of those annoying deeper holes , I am trying to get the screws out of my old NINTENDO DS and I don't think I'll be able to reach it with one of these??
Will this work for a tiny screw where the head came off? I just have the screw shaft in the screw hole, but the head came off completely. I'm a bit nervous because this is a tiny screw in the back of my laser cutter near the laser tube, so I really don't love the idea of drilling a hole into the screw to use a screw extractor
EDIT....I watched to the end, just as I promised! I've ordered the tools, I'm going to wait for their arrival before proceeding with my Frankenstein Idea. *** Here's my original comment, which I'd still love your opinion on! I've a question, my issue is removing 2 very small, badly stripped screws from plastic. Specifically the plastic head of my Dyson vacuum where the motor sits! Out of 4, 2 are stripped extremely bad! So here's my question, it quite literally has been brewing in the back of my head, but before attempting I'd like your input ("Lady, you're crazy, Buy yourself a new vacuum or it just might work!") I'm thinking of taking some JB WELD Steel reinforced epoxy putty, applying it to the screws (after appropriate prepping) & before dry use a "bit" to imprint a new "head". Allow to cure for 48-72 hrs. then using hand torque only remove with the same bit. I'm sure you're busy, I'm simply hoping you can point me in the right direction. Thank you... Now I'll finish the video!
I sent my switch in for a battery repair about 3 yrs into its life and did not realize nintendo repair had a few stripped screws preventing me from being able to open it to do another battery swap 4 yrs after the last one. Little slimes. I know for sure I didn't do it. Too bad it's not months from the repair or I'd call them out on it. I replaced the battery easily on my second switch but my main one has the stripped screws. Never using Nintendo repair again.
small problem (haha funny, cuz small screws), even if i was to get one of these, it doesnt solve my problem... you see, the stripped screw im dealing with is from a 3DS, and the screw is hugged by the plastic... do i just sand it down for like 4 hours to get to the screw?

Please please help anyone.
same bro is it the ssd screw?
But what if it is in one of those annoying deeper holes , I am trying to get the screws out of my old NINTENDO DS and I don't think I'll be able to reach it with one of these??
AND they are the nintendo screws, so the triwing one it's called if I remember correctly.
How to take out tight screws from a controller
i ended up just folding the screw with plyers it became a really good flat head
Will this work for a tiny screw where the head came off? I just have the screw shaft in the screw hole, but the head came off completely. I'm a bit nervous because this is a tiny screw in the back of my laser cutter near the laser tube, so I really don't love the idea of drilling a hole into the screw to use a screw extractor
Why is he only speaking through my left earbud :(
The screw whole is to deep to use it i think
the problem is the thread lock and over tighten of screw at factory. I
Thanks for the video, I had a screw with the top stripped on my gpu and I couldn't get it out, I was able to thanks to you, thanks again
EDIT....I watched to the end, just as I promised! I've ordered the tools, I'm going to wait for their arrival before proceeding with my Frankenstein Idea.
*** Here's my original comment, which I'd still love your opinion on!
I've a question, my issue is removing 2 very small, badly stripped screws from plastic. Specifically the plastic head of my Dyson vacuum where the motor sits! Out of 4, 2 are stripped extremely bad!
So here's my question, it quite literally has been brewing in the back of my head, but before attempting I'd like your input ("Lady, you're crazy, Buy yourself a new vacuum or it just might work!")
I'm thinking of taking some JB WELD Steel reinforced epoxy putty, applying it to the screws (after appropriate prepping) & before dry use a "bit" to imprint a new "head". Allow to cure for 48-72 hrs. then using hand torque only remove with the same bit.
I'm sure you're busy, I'm simply hoping you can point me in the right direction. Thank you... Now I'll finish the video!
useles what about screws when you can't put it on the edge. like if it ha a boundary around it or is in a little hole
This worked for me on a MacBook Pro 2017. Screws holding screen cable was bustet.

How to repair a video where the audio is totally panned to the left?

I sent my switch in for a battery repair about 3 yrs into its life and did not realize nintendo repair had a few stripped screws preventing me from being able to open it to do another battery swap 4 yrs after the last one. Little slimes. I know for sure I didn't do it. Too bad it's not months from the repair or I'd call them out on it. I replaced the battery easily on my second switch but my main one has the stripped screws. Never using Nintendo repair again.
The screw in the video was already loose. How do you get out a stuck stripped screw?
small problem (haha funny, cuz small screws), even if i was to get one of these, it doesnt solve my problem... you see, the stripped screw im dealing with is from a 3DS, and the screw is hugged by the plastic... do i just sand it down for like 4 hours to get to the screw?
Bought these tools but still can't get the screws out of my nvidia shield game controller 😤 😢
Hey did you find a solution
I have a stripped old 3ds screw, will this method work?

Gamecube for me😫😫
If it’s surface level, yeah, if it’s deep, only an extraction kit will help
Damn... best of luck to you 👍
Would not work for a stripped tight screw
Just forward to 3:21 trust
