    BROKEN Custom Fallout 76 Xbox One X - Let's Fix It Then Upgrade! I got this broken Fallout 76 Tricentennial Edition Xbox One X from a viewer named Zack. The Xbox won't fully power on so of course I need to take it apart. With power issues like this I usually suspect a hard drive problem or a problem with the retimer chip. And since I'm working on it anyway, I'm going to upgrade the hard drive to a 1TB SSD.

    Hey Steve check the RealTek Ethernet controller IC. I just fixed a no power lightning struck Xbox by replacing this chip when I found a short on it. It took out everything. Power supply, retimer chip, wifi card, hard drive power data cable and last but not least the Ethernet chip which finally got it up and running. I asked the owner after if he had it hooked up to Ethernet and he did. So maybe check for shorts around there.

    Heya brother, when it comes to showing fine imperfections like scratches in paint, using a hard light source at the right angle will make it more apparent. You have mostly soft lighting in the studio, which is definitely ideal for the vast majority of your footage! Even a cell phone flash light at an angle would have made those scratches show up on camera. You probably already know this stuff as a big UA-camr. Just figured I'd chime in as a video producer and a long time subscriber of your amazing channel! Cheers to you and Mrs. TronicsFix and all the hard work you both do. It's much appreciated.

    So I have a total noob question. When you heat up a component like a chip to soldered it into place, why doesn’t the heat damage the chip or the board? Is the temperature that it reaches only hot enough to melt the solder? Is there any chance of damaging the components when doing repairs like this?

    • @98ek9
      @98ek9 2 роки тому +1

      The solder is real thin and has a low melting point.

    • @leeartlee915
      @leeartlee915 2 роки тому

      @@98ek9 So it’s related to the melting point. That makes sense. So does the hot iron heat up to a specific temperature?

    • @pedrolucasdutra1580
      @pedrolucasdutra1580 2 роки тому +3

      Because the solders melts with a low temperature compared to one that could damage the chip and also it's a very quick procedure.
      Yes there's a chance to damage a component, it's usually with the capacitors that have "oil"(don't remember the name) inside of them, they are the ones that you see popping on old boards. Usually it happens if you leave the heat source on the board more than you should.

    • @leeartlee915
      @leeartlee915 2 роки тому

    • @Tronicsfix
      @Tronicsfix  2 роки тому +7

      As others have said solder melts at a relatively low temperature. Most chips can withstand pretty high heat too. Yes, there is a chance at damaging components when you're using hot air. It takes some time to get used to.
