    Hello boss, I randomly discovered your channel on UA-cam and being a repair technician myself specifically for the printing and packaging industry, I must say you have poured out all of your experience into these short videos, and not many people are capable of doing this. Hats off for doing a great job! There is so much to learn, the way you flux up your board, the subtle movements you use to pre tin the pads. I wish you the very best for years to come.

    I think it helps to have a crowd source blueprint of the Nintendo Switch motherboard. Even if we don't know what the IC's do, it's helpful to know how many surface mount components are on the board and where exactly they are.

    I'm glad you went back to try and repair it. Things like that drive me nuts. I did notice what appeared to be a missing cap are resistor the other person mentioned, but my main thought was when you put the chip on, it was a bit more solder on the center pad than I would have used, I was afraid it could short one of the traces beneath that couldn't be seen. Anyways, glad you went back to it and got it going.

    Loved finding your channel. Thanks for making these videos. Any chance of you creating and maintaining some playlists? I.e. Nintendo Switch repairs, PS4 repairs etc.? I know from the perspective of the creator, playlists often feel like a pain in the bum and waste of time, but you'd be surprised how helpful they are for the viewer. Also, it means people will likely watch more of your videos as UA-cam doesn't farm them off elsewhere. Keep doing what you do. Ed

    My take on what happened : M92 chip replaced - shifted caps caused some sort of overvoltage and fried the chip. Then you placed your caps back, everything was ok, but M92 was fried. Replacing it the second time with no fault on the board made it work. That was a tough nut to crack, good job man

    One time I was having an issue with an application (java) on a PC no other application would fail except for that one. After hours of troubleshooting the PC thinking it was a software problem found out it was a bad capacitor on the motherboard. I still don't understand why it was only causing issues with java. Ive found some weird rare issues throughout my troubleshooting experiences.

    I wonder if you could use a curve tracer with the component installed. You can get a pattern on each terminal of a chip on a good board. Then you can use those patterns for comparison during repairs. You'd have a nice database of patterns.

    Aaah man who would have thought!
    Reminds me of a repair of a PLC i/o module I had a couple of weeks ago at work.
    Device not being recognized by the setup. Everything seems to measure okay so decided to replace the one ic on the board that communicates with the backplane...little bit more life now but still not worki g as it should.
    Replaced the new ic with a know working one from my own device and all was fine.
    Took another new one and placed it on my own device and now all was working again.
    Can't recall correctly btw, did you try to charge the switch after replacing the ic but with the missing component before?
    If so, could that have caused the IC to die again?
