I'm thinking that the console was dropped. The shock snapped the choke and the hard drive caddy. Good find though. I don't think I would have found the open choke so quickly 😅
A very interesting one as I have not seen this repair or done one myself. Have you repaired the multimeter which was giving you an error in the last video?
I'm trying. I bought it broken and I thought I had it fixed as it was working well. When I received it, the rotary mode switch was 180 degrees out and sending voltages where they shouldn't go. I may buy a working one to compare against since I don't have a schematic.
To be honest, wherever I can find them. If I can identify a part and it is common, Mouser or Digi-Key. If it's not a common off-the-shelf part, eBay or AliExpress. Some parts can only be sourced from a donor board.
I recently got an xbox one S from a scrapyard for $5. It does not turn on and needs a deep cleaning. The motherboard looks fine but the power supply does not show 12V when I give it power. What could be the issue?
@@alectrona6400 I would probably start by disconnecting the power supply from the circuit board and test to see if it outputs 12V then. If there is no 12V from the supply, you need to replace the supply. If there is 12V when the supply is disconnected, there is probably a short on the main PCB that will have to be repaired.
@@ToltecMerc Turns out I didn't check the voltages right, the PSU shows 12V. The small mosfets on the board appear to be okay but I did see there is a short on the row of 820uf 2.5V capacitors, and using the diode function on my multimeter shows 0V. Is there a bad capacitor?
12:36 - Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think here he made mistake. This solder double triangle (looks like W), is not meant to be desoldered/removed. Its actually precise airgap , if voltage is low enough, there will be no continuity, if voltage spikes (above some value, I think its 1kV for 1mm distance?) occur then it jumps in the air and there is continuity, it should be some safety measure. 20:06 - Its fast forwarded and is under glare so I couldnt see in what shape W part is...
It's a spark gap. It was left bare to help it arc easier. That's why it had solder on it, no solder mask. I don't believe removing the solder will be detrimental. It just needs to bare and leave the gap the same.
What could the problem be if my xbox is dead and when I connect it the internal power supply makes a constant biiiiiip (sound effect). I cleaned it and checked its voltage, its 12.05 ish.Checked the V with the power supply disconnected from the console and then I connected it again and checked the voltage on the same capacitator that you checked ( but you got 0 ). I was about to buy another power supply but now I’m not sure if that the problem. A friend will give me he’s xbox and I’m thinking of trying his power supply on my xbox. But could that damage it?
You may have a bad power supply but it sounds like you have a short on your mainboard. You should be fine to try another supply of the exact same type in your console. If you have a short, the new supply will just shut down like your current power supply.
@@ToltecMerc Thanks man, I got my friends xbox but it was disconnected for about a yeah. It doesnt turn on and sound like a bird when connected. I guess i’ll order a new power supply to check both out. Is 30 dollars a good price for one?

Every video is beter than other, great repair!
Wow! I'm glad you enjoy them!
It's really hard to grasp that you are doing this just as a hobby. My hat's off to you! 👏
Thank you so much 😀! It has grown into a side business.
i do same got loads bits here i got from ebay just enjoy repairing stuff
I don't have the same problem with mine but this was very cool
Thank you!
Thumps up every time...........great repair.
Thank you! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. I appreciate that!
Excellent Repair and Video! You must be highly educated, I had to look up common-mode rejection ratio. Thank You.
Thanks! I'm just a technician who has picked up a few terms along the way!
Another nice work thanks.
Thank You! Glad you liked it!
Great Repair! Thank you!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed!

A drop is the likely reason. Thanks for stopping by!
The main power management ic is below the capacitor its a TEA1755LT .
Nice one sir 👍
Thank you very much!

I have xbox one series s its hdd is short dead ........i replaced new hdd but xbox is not giving display 😢 any solution ?
Nice!
Thanks!
I was wondering where can I get that really nice pen grinder you are using?
I got mine from NorthrdigeFix. You can get them from AliExpress as well.
@@ToltecMerc Thanks, I'll go get me one of those. 🙂
Where do you order all your parts from

whats your background/day job?? how did you aquire your knowledge on electronics and components?
TV Broadcast Engineer. I don't get a chance to do component level trouble-shooting in my day job so I have found an outlet for my frustrations.
@@ToltecMerc that sounds interesting! you are better than me at my job and i do this fulltime...
Mine stopped working cause we had high voltage electricity in my house. Is it possible that it will work again?
Possibly replacing the power supply will fix it.
@@ToltecMerc will give it a try thank you 🙏🏾

I left it connected for a minute and it smells like burnt plastic
cool:)
Thank you!

fuuuk i hate when they off camera the one part i need help with, if you had trouble we probably did too
