    I’m shocked you didn’t think instantly that m92t36 chip would be part of the problem. It seems to be the problem in most faulty switches. I repaired one for my channel recently and it was one of the biggest repairs I’ve done, but i felt confident because of watching channels like yours constantly! Keep it up, very entertaining.

    As the diode is right by a big inductor, my guess is that it is a schottky and is used as part of a buck regulator, so probably not too critical apart from needing to be able to handle the current.

    • @miguelfontenele221
      @miguelfontenele221 4 года назад

      Is it a "flyback/flywheel" diode? According to what i researched you can put a diode across a inductor and apparently its serves to reduce the ripple kinda the same purpose of the decoupling capacitors at the output of a buck converter. i'm a noob to board repair and electronics so i could be way wrong.

      ... and a diode in that circuit will show shorted even when it may not be. Both diode leads have to be tested off the circuit because of the inductor, little to no resistance in inductors.

    Watching you do these repairs is interesting but my soldering skills are not very good. This is why I leave all my device repairs to the pros. I will solder speaker wires and such but that is it. Great Job.

  • @faruknamdar
    @faruknamdar 3 года назад +4

    Boss, do not apply pressure on the chip with the bottom pedestal chips. If you have applied Flux to the leg paths, it will be sufficient to put the chip in its socket and heat it at low speed and sufficient temperature. The chip will sit by itself. Touching each other is very common as there will be contact in the invisible place even if you apply pressure on the chip and apply flux. Because you are already renewing and inflating the solders. If you renew the solder with minimal cleaning then you can apply light pressure. This is my experience and opinion. Kind regards,

    I have the same problem with my quadcopter's flight controller. The Schottky diode was shorted I removed it & no short on the FC. I'm not able to find that diode anywhere on the internet. I would love to see how you find the right components without donor boards.

  • @masteryoda394
    @masteryoda394 4 года назад +5

    I think many diode would work, Just figure out the forward voltage to see if it's a normal diode ( about 0.6V) or a schottky diode ( forward voltage 0.145 to 0.45 V), it should not make much difference.
    Unless it's a zener,the you need to figure out the reverse voltage, but the symbol on the board is not the Zener symbol.

    • @masteryoda394
      @masteryoda394 4 года назад +1

      Unless it's a Zener, then you need to figure out the reverse voltage using the multimeter.

    Being in repair for a short time myself, I simply do not believe anyone that says they didn't try to fix it at all. If it turns out to be true, great. More often than not it will have been tampered with.
    Now, that's ok! Fine. Just tell me. It makes the repair harder to pretend it's in factory condition as you hand it to me.
    Finally, I always wonder why we lie about the things we lie about. Ya know? Lmao
    Like, just tell me you tried fixing it. I respect people that want to fix things! Just tell me but even when it's blatant they'll look me in the eye and say they didn't (or anyone else). It's amazing.

    I use a small kim wipe on the board, then I scrub with iso soaked qtip on top of that. Strings of cotton doesn't snag on the components, its not abrasive on delicate pads, and the wipe absorbs the dissolved flux very well. Without just pushing the flux it around and having it flow all over the board. Then move to a clean section of the wipe if there is a lot of flux to absorb.

    Now I don't want to be an eyesore for other techs if a customer needs a different repair in the future, or I have a case I deem too complex for my current stage of skill (still learning) - but I never wick off solder if I get a little bit on a test pad. Unless its a big raised blob of course. I mean, it was already an open, bare metal pad. Surface used to be dull copper, now it's shiny tin and lead.
    I am a little curious how other techs deal with flux that's in between components, not in/on ports or chips with thermal paste. I usually clean it very thorough, although that is not risk free either, especially with iphone boards. Tube says _no-clean_ flux - does anyone leave it on?

    لماذا جربت الجهاز قبل ان تتأكد من زوال الشورت ؟ يعني لماذا جعلت البيج بوص يجمع الجهاز؟! , لا ادري هل مرت عليك حاله من قبل فيها شورت و اشتغل معك الجهاز ؟

      You can use a few drops olive oil on . Wait for 5minutes up, and rub it gently
      Might this works..

      I wouldn't get anything below 30fps. Look up reviews on amazon and make a decision. The one i have is the only one i've used and i can't suggest any specific one.
