Thx for the video! Much appreciated. However i have some advice if you accept it from me: -clean the board/pads prior to soldering -choose the right wire size -make a better connection(better soldering) Regarding the cable management and routing, im not sure about running the wires through the chips leads, it looks better and easier but im not sure if electrical noise will affect the chips by anyway. Thanks Again!
Thanks for the honest feedback. I totally agree that the board should have been cleaned - typically I remove the entire board and give it a good bath. You can certainly see how dirty the board was that I picked up from a thrift shop. The wire size is actually correct and works perfectly well for this application. My soldering skills can ALWAYS use improvement. With that being said these messy solders have worked for over 100 hours of actual use and the wire routing has not caused any noise related issues. All of your points are definitely valid observations though so very much appreciated!
Sorry it took so long to respond - I've been super sick with the flu. The color of the wire doesn't really tell you much. What you need to do is figure out which pin that wire goes to on the mod chip and then I can tell you which solder pad it connects to. Let's call the top left pin #1 and count going down the left side then the right from top down until you number each pin. It should be pretty easy to help from there. Thanks for stopping by and hope I can help!
@@myrandom603 i researched it it's working now. The problema now is THE switch that activites THE lense doesnt work i need to replace it with another switch. The switch that moves THE motor. Do You think with that swap it Will Work again?
The door sensor switch is pretty easy to replace and only costs $1 (US) You can also find the entire laser/lens kit on Ali Express for about $10 (US) or $20 if you want to use Amazon or Ebay. Have you tested that the switch is bad and it isn't the motor or anything else?
@@myrandom603 yes it is THE sensor... I think it's just that. But i dont have a soldar gun....i AM going to ask a cousin of mine if he can do they swap. Thank you
I can't believe you have only 11 subscribers.
You would be an excellent tech guide.
Keep it up and have subscribed you.
Thanks! I appreciate it, plenty more videos like this one to come. Hopefully I get better as I go along!
i agree he's an excellent at tech and knows about emf and how to set up the flipper zero . looking forward too anything new..... singed his nephew
This video really comes in clutch. I need to install an stealth mod chip and this really comes handy
Thanks so much, I’m glad this was able to help!
