And because of that I managed to get a collection of old retro consoles and ps3 that I bought broken and repaired them myself. Including the infamous NIC TOKEN replacement on the PS3!

      I unsubbed one person last week, I won't name him but he retro fitted a backlight connector for a customer and knowingly didn't fit the few other components to get the circut working.
      The guy charges a large fixed rate for repairs and it was the final straw for me, greed over pride in work.
      I totally agree on the rest of the community though, lots of banter and good will between the youtubers.

    Some things…just aren’t fixable, no matter what people may like to think…unless you literally re-engineer the whole damn machine you’re working on. I’d still love to know if the short was internal, within the layers of the board. How could you actually go about figuring that out? Literally deconstruct every circuit on the board? I’m guessing so, and at that point, you’re just answering a question, and a fix is out of the question, so I understand why you didn’t go down that route lol.

    Did you clear the "fuse" before voltage injection? Otherwise it backfeeded the rail and that may caused the mosfets' back-diode to turn on/overheat (and those mosfets shouldn't be the problem as the PSU and the CPU/APU was energized during test /it would shut down, if any mosfet would have been shorted/)
    Are you sure those are the parts that serialized/married together? Afaik "only" the ODD-controller, APU, Syscon and Flash(content) are married-- why would it be paired to the SB's RAM?
    Have you tried enabling the serial-port and checking the output? (yeah, it's a bit hassle to remove the flash, dump, modify (BwE tool), flash back and solder back)
    Do you have any experience in how likely the CxD90042GG SB is failing compared to any other SB?
