Seems like you can handle just about anything the PS5 can throw at you (except maybe a bad APU). No whining, just a quality repair. Always fun to watch.
Yeah I think this guy is 1st class, and the best of the best, he really goes into detail & these videos so concise, and easy to understand and goes the extra mile where most other techs would give up and move on.
It fills my heart when he takes off a capacitor from a donor board and measures it to get the value, instead of just swapping parts. On a sidenote, wish there were schematics for these consoles, like there is for the xbox one s. That would help a lot.
I've been hit with 2 of these recently, 2 different wholesalers. Bad power supply and board on one, bad power supply and PSN banned on another. Just gonna buy from private sellers from now on. Love watching your troubleshooting process. Thanks for the videos
It would be nice to find a good source for legitimate broken consoles that haven't been messed with. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. I do appreciate it.
Excellent repair, double in this case. I loved. Thank you very much for sharing. A sincere congratulations. All the best. PS: (18:58) In your video #89, SMPS, I saw you replace those Output Mosfets (in that same section) and I never forgot it. Thank you very much sir for teaching us how to repair and not just have to replace the entire power supply.
Watch out for those Ebay scams. I had a couple claiming 'no power - so no other testing could be done.' End up being dead power supply, messed up components on the board and the worst part psn banned. I have opened eBay case, and after some time, I was able to get my money back. Sellers tried to scam me even after that by opening a case against me, stating I sent them, not a complete return, but Ebay resolved it in my favor. Don't let those sellers get away with those scams.
@@ToltecMercbro my ps5 suddenly goes off after i puts it on sleep mode and refuse to turn on.i am living in bangladesh. And here is no good mechanics like you..i consulted some local mechanics they said problem in motherboard what should i do?i bought it only 1 years ago..I don't have money to buy another. I am so broke..it was my first console..please give me some advice.
Glad to see vids from you again m8. What is that tape you use on the ssd controller? Seems like its kapton but looks different. Also be careful with that bwe software...the author seems to be a bit nutty lately lol
It is some kind of heat resistant tape that comes on SSD controllers from AliExpress vendors. Whatever it is, it is very tough so I have been hanging on to the little pieces and reusing them.
A master's job Sir thanks for sharing this informative video. Just a question please as we see here the mosfets are on the output side but we also see rectifier diodes if I'm not wrong so what is the purpose of the mosfets on the output and if you can provide a reference so that I can understand what did you mean here please?
What is the recourse for something like this? I bought a PS5 slim with a reported HDMI problem. Fixed that only to find out the previous owner killed the drive as well ripping out a game disc.
If the disc drive is the one that came with the console, you can remove the PCB inside the drive and transfer to a good Blu-Ray drive. It would need to be the correct model as they have made 2 or 3 different Blu-Ray drives by now.
Hi, have you ever mentioned the temperatures you use for the preheater and the gun when soldering/desoldering chips ? If yes please point me to this video. Also why you put this tape on top of the crystal ? To protect it from direct heat ?
Hate when people do that on ebay, so scummy, glad you were able to fix both the ps5 and power supply! able to share the name of that white thermal paste you used on the mosfets?
Thank you! Plenty of scammers out there. The white grease is just generic heat conductive grease. I got it from eBay. It is marked AA-Grease 04. It is in a 50 gm tub.
Hey ToltecMerc, great video as always! I was wondering if you would be interested in a PS5 that I have to do a video on? Currently the state of the board is it pulls up to 0.3amps for a few seconds and goes back down to 0.01 amps for the standby sequence, notable items are it doesn't have any shorts on the board I can find, chips that have been replaced: South bridge, memory controller, HDMI encoder, and a wifi chip reflow. I'm a hobbyist repair tech that volunteers in my county and I would appreciate learning from you if you can figure out what's wrong with it!
hello sir. i have a ps5 that beeps and the light turns on. i was wondering if i can send it out to you and u could take a look at it thank you and let me know
hi, I have a strange case, after turning it on and the PS logo, the LED starts to glow white, no image, reinstalling the firmware does nothing, maybe you had something similar?
Made in China, comes back in some form or another once it's recycled, which means goes back on the boat, scrapped and remade into something else, rinse and repeat.
My ps5 use to turn on but the hdmi was bad had it sent to a repair shop and they replaced it but then got a email and they said that it won't turn on to even test it could u fix it if I paid u
It freaks me out every time when you don’t discharge the capacitors first! Please for your viewers sanity (plus as a good example) immediately discharge the caps. Also what is the white goop you put on the transistors? Way to defeat the dark forces of eBay!

Thank you! I am having fun as well!
That's very kind of you! Thank you!
It blows my mind that despite how knowledgeable and efficient you are you have less than 10k subs. May the algorithm smile upon you
I guess I'm just not "flashy" enough. I just fix stuff. Thanks for stopping by!
Amazing fix as always sir, an absolute wealth of knowledge obtained from your videos, thank you.
(The coffee prep makes me late! 😊)
Thanks so much Joey! I do try to catch all your live streams. Best of luck to you in your repairs!
The Joey does Tech Thing 😂❤
Well he just happened to be streaming as I was recording. He was late though!

One man's garbage is another man's treasure. Great fix!
Sometimes it can be molded into treasure. Thanks for the visit!
I cannot express how much I learned from watching your videos. You are a very generous man, and I appreciate it very much.
I am glad you find my videos helpful. That is encouraging!
Excellent repair, double in this case. I loved. Thank you very much for sharing. A sincere congratulations. All the best.

New videos new studies,you are the best sir.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos!
excellent job! I'm confident that PS5 was listed as "untested" because "we don't have the cables"... :)
It is quite common isn't it. So many "untested" systems out there.
@@ToltecMerc Last PS3 I got "untested" had smashed HDMI and LAN ports, obviously :) Fair enough I paid it £5 or £10...
Another PS5 saved for someone to enjoy for a while longer. Nice Job! as always.
Thank you! One more saved from the landfill!
Rotten ebay scammers!! Great Repair and Video as Always! I enjoyed the JDT shout out as well. Thank You.
You are very welcome! Thanks for the visit!
Love these videos, you've helped me through my repairs more times than once. Thanks for the awesome content
Thank you! That's good to hear! I'm happy people get something useful out of my videos.
perfect Job as always, It's nice looking at your work.
Wow thanks! I do appreciate that. I try to be neat!
i was surprised we got another video so soon thank you
Well I had a few days off in a row. I probably should have saved it for a bit later. Oh well, enjoy!
Great work
Another brilliant video.
Great job. We can use your videos as tutorials for us. 👍
That is awesome! It’s a good thing they didn’t know you were buying it. They would’ve charged you double on eBay.😂. You can fix anything. Thanks!!!!
They seem to be high enough as it is! I will "try" to fix anything. Thanks for stopping in!

There does seem to be a large number of people on eBay who are willing to do anything for money. Best of luck in all your repairs!

Another good one as usual!!! Congratulations!!! Which replacement did you use for those transistors?
You are the GOT man.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it! More on the way!
I learned a lot from your videos, really appreciate ❤
That's nice to hear! You are quite welcome!

but this evil Ebay give us 2 great repairs in 1 video
True but it makes so much harder for me! At least there was a happy ending!
nice repair there toltecmerc you are my teacher 🤭
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

"They are everywhere!" 😂
There are a lot of broken PS5s.
If I may ask... what's your percentage of repair success regarding PS5's purchases off ebay?
I would estimate about 90%. Of course I’m also pretty selective on what I buy.
👍👍
Thank you!

Forgot to mention it is currently in a state of 1-2 second BLOD
hello sir. i have a ps5 that beeps and the light turns on. i was wondering if i can send it out to you and u could take a look at it
thank you and let me know
hi, I have a strange case, after turning it on and the PS logo, the LED starts to glow white, no image, reinstalling the firmware does nothing, maybe you had something similar?
Your problem is probably the HDMI port or the HDMI Encoder IC.
nice
Thank you! Hope you enjoy!
EBay…. Always nice to be able to take junk and make it work again!
Made in China, comes back in some form or another once it's recycled, which means goes back on the boat, scrapped and remade into something else, rinse and repeat.
Sure. But we love the repair videos
That's where all my junk comes from. At least there is plenty of it to choose from.
My ps5 use to turn on but the hdmi was bad had it sent to a repair shop and they replaced it but then got a email and they said that it won't turn on to even test it could u fix it if I paid u
sneaky ebay seller but we got it all fixed in the end 😁
You do have to be careful on eBay. Plenty of dishonest people in the world. Thanks for stopping by!

Way to defeat the dark forces of eBay!
The white grease is Silicone Heat Transfer Compound. Thanks!
What multimeter do you use?
Those fets were ok then
Yes, absolutely!
Good job mate
Youre the boss!
Thank you very much!
