    • @supupandaway8138
      @supupandaway8138 2 роки тому +4

      Not counting the troubleshooting skills its also knowing to heat the board up from the bottom so that cap doesn’t shoot your eye out or what if one of those caps he removed entered the 7th dimension you have to know how to figure out what goes back there and not that its just a cap but what package and what capacitance goes back and I’m just getting started take that board heat it up then bump those parts and mix them up and not have a schematic and good luck getting it back together caps change resistance tolerances also when they are in circuit and vice verse I’m sure you are getting the picture by now

    Hey boss, when heating from underneath the board, what temp do you set your hot air to? 400 still?, id like to try that technique, im self taught, and typically if im doing a repair real close to an aluminum cap, I cover it with some modeling clay /play doh, and put a more concentrated tip on.

      @silent9pc 2 роки тому

      650 or 700 F should handle a PS4 board no problem, depending on how well your iron compensates heat dispersion on ground planes. Having hot air or a board heater greatly helps though.
