I would be interested in part II.
Thanks for part I.
You are the best teacher, I started electronics in 1969 but you taught me modern methods. Thank you. Sorry, I would order something but I am in Thailand.
Alex, Thank you for making these videos and sharing your knowledge.
You just showed me reballing a chip with a unuversal stencil thank you mate
Definite part 2 needed.
You have open fuse thats why your 20 volts is not drawing any current. Your io chip has vcc. Follow the short or open. With resistance checks. Good luck. Joe from SA TX.
Sometimes, when a chip blows, like a SuperIO, it can send far more voltage to CPU vCore than expected and destroy the CPU. We had a MacBook at work with a hole in the charge chip, 20 volts went straight to the CPU and now the board is a paperweight.
Yeah, I'd never trust a CPU if I have a board literally blow up like this, you have to assume it's fried.
You'll need a proper calibrated wire to fix that one. Lol.
And needs to be dodgy as well 😄😄
Also, there are clearly too many capacitors, some need removing.
@@ralphj4012 Of course, no capacitor, no shorted capacitor
😮
I cant believe! lol
always awesome. thanks for posting , your repairing activity
Your ec ship have not the good firmware...
Thank you so much for your videos. I enjoy watching and listen to you.
Thanks for your honesty dear
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like an opportunity to develop and sell the NF.Clamp.
Hi Alex, good Job... May be there Is same more iussue like CPU or EC must be programmed with rigth firmware if the donor board are not identica and not Always EC are programmed from BIOS.. bye Francesco Timpano from Florence Italy
or the PCH/CPU/GPU got 20V
😮
another great vid,,,,,,,,,,, thanks for posting
Awesome Alex.
Great video 👍
Another great video.
great video Alex, i havent seen you re ball a chip before, definately better than factory!
The NF mini pen is amazing. I use it every day in my repairs ❤
What temperature are you using the pen?
@@MarcusJivanFotoCarena usually above 300....like 320
i have the previous gen of this laptop, whenever i plug it into the first usb-c to charge, the area around the charging port gets burning hot but the laptop still functions and it still charges. when i plug it into the second usb-c port to charge, it does not get hot. any idea what this could be?
thanks for sharing
Why didn't you just reball the chip using the soldering iron or is there a reason for reballing it that way? I'm new to soldering.
Would the high % rubbing alcohol / IPA help remove the excess solder paste?
Well that was a better cliffhanger than when Picard turned into Locutus! Is the captain a Borg? will Riker take command? Who cares we have an HP that still won't start up! pART II part II part II!!
Welcome back Alex!!!!
I think the PCH needs to be programmed (if the CPU still alive)
I'd have been curious to know if the hot spot had been present with the power cable disconnected (thus just the battery providing the energy to heat the chip...).
On the UNI-T Meter the leeds are Input and the sockets are Output. This is why you don't have a current reading
Out of curiosity, why do we reball / repaste the chip to get the solder balls instead of using normal solder and making the balls with an iron?
Same question
Running a iron over the pads with some non leaded solder wouldn't leave behind enough solder for this use case. Dragging an iron with solder on it over pads only leaves a slight coating of solder, here you need a decent amount to bridge the gap between the chip and board especially if you have to account for surfaces not being perfectly flat. It's a very common technique with chips. You also can't just go back and add more solder if there isn't initially enough like you can do with exposed solder joints which are the type you can sometimes typically drag solder with a iron over to create a joint. With exposed joints or bridges if you don't initially have enough solder it's not a big deal as you can always reflow more solder into the joint or bridge as it is exposed but with these being under the chip that's basically impossible to do.
Balls needs to be same proper size
It's doable, with lots of flux, a knife tip and with solder on it. Just touch every pad ever so slightly. Works 8/10 times. But has two problems : it can happen that the balls be deformed and different size, if you lost flux and forgot to add more. Very little heat is applied so you may have balls which are barely hanging. With some skill it can be doable. And third problem: you have to touch up on every individual pad! That's an enormous amount of work for this.

Alex video was helpful
Had a storm in my area Monday night causing my $300 air fryer not to work. Heard loud popping sounds, some of the house came on after 2 hours, 4 breakers popped. Took it into a local shop, I mentioned watching you and he's also a fan . He's bought some products. Uses alcohol, no thermal cam.
This is why l always unplug my 300 bucks air fryer oven when finished.
So the air fryer got fried?
Alex, can that IC chip be reballied by just puttin flux onto the IC, then heat up the chip for some time?
Hello from Nigeria.
Please do the part 2. Thanks
Please do a part 2. I am as curious as you to find out what the problem actually is.
Love andSupport from India sir🙏🏻
I hope you can find an thermal camera to attach to your microscope.
If the donor haves the bios chips on it replace them also the ec chip makes conection whit the bios firmware
"The laptop looks something like this"
It looks exactly like this
Not without the cover on!
@@blutey well what about when he holds up a motherboard and says "motherboard looks something like this"
@@DZ-bo8hq He didn't in the video, though.
do sell that white tester for the computer?
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
How do I get a quote on a package before sending it in?
I think your amp meter reading must be wrong (inaccurate). If it is 0 Amps then nothing can cause heat.
He connected the battery. IC can draw the current from the battery
it is getting power from the battery..
I believe that amp meter can't show less than 50mA so at 20V there could be a little bit less than 1W.
I believe that the battery was connected and the current to supply that heat was coming from it. His ammeter was only showing what was on the usb cable.

Not sure may be you have to reprogram the chip. If the SIO is good at least it should communicate with battery and give the charging light i guess.
I have Hp Omen 15 dc gaming laptop 2018 model and after 3 years its gpu GTX 1060 went bad as the laptop screen flashes continuously on and off, so I disabled GPU from device manager and used it for 2 years now the CPU (i7 8750H) is also gone bad as told by local technician. As just 1 week ago GPU properties showed error code 43 and completely dead and now laptop running on cpu shows artifacts, technician says to replace motherboard. So can anyone confirm whether it’s just some short for both CPU and GPU / some VRAM fault/ MOSFET fault or the laptop’s motherboard is completely dead? as motherboard cost quoted by technician is very high. I would replace the motherboard if there is no other option left. so reply is appreciated from northridgefix and all of the viewers.
It's a holy glove.
Doesn't the Super IO chip have to be programmed first ?
we should try our luck by reprogramming the chip and BIOS
why dont you put the tape on the pads around the chip that you dont want to fill?
Your kidding right? You realize how small these parts are right? Even if he could find tape small enough and thin enough it would be so finicky to work with and probably harder then the method he used. The solder won't stick if there's no pads the only worry is it pooling into solder balls next to it.
Did you programmed the EC chip?
No Need. It gets the firmware from bios when powered on. I have swapped IO chips on Hp Spectre before with no issues. Also did the same on an MSI G76 Laptop with a blown super IO ruclips.net/video/MvDnIOApGmo/видео.html
@@NorthridgeFix Oh, ok, so that EC chip model is a self programming one. It is not always like that, but good to know.
👍
hey you recoment usb c meter
usb c 65 adapter thinkpad
Lets see a part 2
👍👍👍
Alex, better a hole in your glove than one in the bucket. My wife has a hole in her hand. That's worse 🤣
I think a few of the BGA balls were a bit too small. I think the chip is not making all the connections
Good luck Alex chin up fu k the haters
I think you need chip holder for those small chips
"Everything in stock unless its not"
Make part 2
Asalamualaikum 🎉
I must say that one wasn't better than factory...lol...just kidding I know you will figure it out...
If you need worlds best scissors for every day use.. you need buy from Finland Fiskars scissors.
I am not kidding.
Im confused, why did you assume a reball would fix the issue ?
Did it help in the past, I’m genuinely interested
Regards
He didn’t reball the same chip. He reballed a donor chip from another board 🙏
@@xFluZah ah got it, sorry I didn’t catch that, must be the same exact board then, since I would assume it needs programming
😮
This particular model is trash, I'll never advise anyone to buy it.
It always have cpu failure.
I think this Chip is compatible with the CPU 😢
Looks like a blown fuse!
Like u said before reballing a waste of time .
Get a insta369 cam it's better
Heat sink
Soon as i heard HP Spectre i lnew oh lord pray for alex these are designed to fail spectacularly.
How is mumbling to yourself for a few seconds going to "help Alex"??!
@@Big74Mike2012 if there is a higher power he will let this be the 1-99999999999 HP Spectres that get fixed instead of becoming landfill.
😂😂
Bro its 2024 who even uses stll HP stuff? 😂
idk why people keep buying HP laptops? they should know the longevity issues present in this crappy laptop.
idk why people buy HP products tbh
do people know? i don't think the general population keeps track of those things. i think most people see HP as a familiar brand / recognized name and therefore expect them to be reliable.
HP have very good laptops like the Elitebooks or Zbooks. Unfortunately the X360 are troublesome.
Why do people buy X360? They don't care and the cost of ownership means nothing for 'em.
DELL laptops have good reputation.
As if Asus is better??.Lenovo? Today all companies are in the trend of reducing materials at the expense of quality "the main thing is a lightweight laptop"
15 years ago there were well built laptops with relatively less malfunctions. Today 3 grams of dust in the fan. CPU burned!
HP does not make good laptop design, dont waste your time fixing them as they will break elsewhere! Had 2 laptops and both went defective after 1 year. Power charging issues, burned chips, etc...
HELLO SIR PLEASE U NEED A 2ND CAMERA FOR WATCHING TO REPAIRING
