Hey maam! Im 14 and i probably watched this video 17 times to try to fix my hdmi port on my ps4 and i was successful after around 2 hours. I was lacking a couple of tools and my port ankers were completely broken off and after trial and error i was able to get them. I couldn't have done it without your help thank you so much. You really made this look too easy it was a HEADACHE. For any future people trying to do a first home repair i suggest to take it slow and do not get frustrated and go slow or you will make incredible mistakes.
I just finished doing one of these replacements with your instruction! I have so much respect for your skills and steady hand! That was seriously such a tricky operation, especially without a microscope! ChipQuik for the win! 😁
good vid...i have done hundreds of these ports..i actually have a fairly easy way of cleaning out the holes for the legs of the port...you use some 0.5mm solder braid and your hot air station with a small nozzle heat the holes till they liquefy and feed the solder braid through the holes cleans them out pretty quick..i am currently working on one that has been completely fubar..a previous tech ripped all but one of the pads off the board (that's what happens when you try to pull a port without heating it properly) so i now have to completely rebuild the circuit with awg 36 wire ...oh and they blew off several of the diodes near the port so i get to replace those too lol
When I buy broken systems and see that much damage (just had one, 3 missing diodes), I end up salvaging the working parts (PSU, BD Drive, HDD, etc) and resell them, I actually 100% of the time end up making more off of the console than I would if it was just working. I've done about 6 of the HDMI ports now, they can be a real pain in the ass
She is actually using very good quality tools and supplies, as I can see, she is using a very good desoldering wick and as she said she's using Chip Quik, which is a very good flux... so I can't understand why struggles so much to clean those support holes. The only reason I can think is the soldering iron is too low on temperature, otherwise that solder should came off very easily.
OMG....you saved me at the least 260. So i bought a small Zeny Rework.Tried to not wait on Chipquik next day delivery and found myself unsuccessful. But was happy with the hour practice time..lol.I received CQ today and now you and i are BFFL.(Best Friends for Life)......Thanks..
03:23 No, for some reason that I cannot find an explaination for, the PS4 (at least on the original model SAA-001 board) has one side of the socket barely soldered on on some boards. The other socket on back (some kind of connection port) is always half soldered and the HDMI is almost always half soldered or all 4 look like the joints on the right. Very bare and spare solder.
Yeah awesome. I discovered my Pioneer KRP-600M had only one working HDMI port after having it moved over 700 miles and over water to me here in the UK. It's the first 2nd hand display I've bought but always a risk on Ebay and I've found that out to my cost in away. I still have the working HDMI. There's DVI-D and component - fortunately this monitor supports 1080P over component RGB. But it's always a worry when down to your last port. Took the thing apart yesterday and these things are built to last so even getting the board out took quite a while and about 40 screws, ribbon cables, power supply connectors etc. Anyway one of the connectors is very slightly damaged inside - on the far right, second from right the little copper strip is very slightly damaged. It wasn't saying no signal before just a blank screen. But I'm actually glad it's just a damaged port itself and not the chip itself dying. Like 75% eventually of LG video input boards lol. Anyway it's £160 to buy a fully functional tested used board, or it's send it off for repair through the post somewhere - or attempt it myself as I've nothing to lose. I don't have any soldering equipment anymore and have never attempted HDMI before. But I love all this stuff so I'll guess I'll just need to think about it first. Your example here is by far the neatest, professional I've seen yet here. Amazing touch and skill - very quick and tidy too. Fantastic. Subbed.
I know this is an old video but got to say you did a great job.. I’ve done my share of soldering and being self taught , I use to be hesitant on doing solder jobs. The smaller the more I was like “idk bout doing that” lol. But got better and now I’m like “who needs soldering done” lol.. still don’t like doing very small solder jobs my hands shake to much , but anyways just giving you a salute .. much respect..
i have my own consoles repair shop back here in the middle east - Palestine, i do this regularly specially for the 10xx and 11xx ps4 models, one thing is that the replacement port sometimes does not align correctly, so i need to clean the 4 fixing holes before i replace it to so it aligns perfectly, great vid thanx
I'm deaf, I can hear other videos with no problem perhaps a redo with louder voulum. It would be great for Me.. Love the video like to get in touch on a couple of tools you use and flux solder... Please reach out to me. Thanks and Kudos.
So I tried this repair with a heat gun off of eBay and I learned that it blew the right amount of heat but way to hard. The board around my hdmi port is burnt quite a bit. Will that effect it’s functionality? And I learned my 2$ soldering iron from the flea market I bought when I was 11 isn’t hot enough on the top to melt solder
I tried this and kept trying to get the solder on the brown connectors…however they seem to have gotten scratched off( about 4 strip places turned completely brown). DIY fail. 🤧 Was my soldering machine to hot?
hello Lady good job 👍can you help me and answer a question? I lost an SMD component when replacing the HDMI socket. It sits directly near the HDMI jack ... there are two components .... a 2,6uf capacitor and a diode, can you tell me what that is for a diode?
Seems like a stupid question, but this could be possible with a normal soldering iron as well, I suppose? Snip off the old connector, get rid of all the remaining pins and pieces from the old connector, clean the pads up with some flux and wick, and for the new connector just melt all four main solder joints in a circular motion to seat the connector, and then finally soldering the little pins by doing the pull-soldering method. I cant see why it wouldnt work.
Very nice video and thanks ... Quick question, how secure are those HDMI port? When we connect HDMI to TV port ... Sometimes when we move the cable , or when we push it in... It's not easy to make the port lose right?. What happened was one of my TV , when I life the HDMI cable, the colour or screen turned dim and when I move it again .. it turned back to normal ... So I assume the port was losen?
I don't know how these hot air guns are designed but I wonder if I could use a culinary butane torch to do this type of job. How hot is too hot? I find it very hard to judge with the culinary torch as the flame isn't vectored to the work like that of an actual hot air gun. I wonder maybe I could add a collar with a nozzle and get the heat where i need it.
i came across your video while searching how to replace my display port. I assume its similar to the process you showed us here but I'm curious if you know of any differences before i decide to go to work on it. also i checked the website and cant seem to find a replacement mini display port, can you possibly help me out and lemmie know where i can find one please? thank you in advance!
Hello, I have a doubt, my ps4 when it lights presents the PlayStation logo does not return to give video and is left with the light in white. I want to know if it is HDMI Video Output IC MN86471A Chip for Playstation 4 that needs to replace or only the HDMI port.
very good work. i fix consoles and pcs for a living. and i hate how cheap sony made there hdmi ports. no back plate to stop pines from being pushed back. i have a question what would be a good pc cam to use to work on replacing the hdmi ports? using my eyes alone drivers me crazy. thanks!
Listen up kids trying to fix your PlayStation: this is an excellent video and great instruction. One thing to remember and consider before attempting this is the proper tools and materials to do this job properly are not cheap. Im all for people learning to repair things for a variety of reasons, but the most common is to save money. If you buy a $10 iron at Walmart and borrow you grandma's magnifying glass you are destined to lift pads and screw up traces. Then you'll take it to a repair shop and the repair will cost 5x what it would've cost to just have them do it first. Does this mean you have to get a degree to do the work? Absolutely not, but you better be prepared to fail for the first few times! Failure is the quickest way to learn sometimes so do the first repairs on friend's PlayStation. 😉😂
Excellent video !!! Can you help me? I changed the hdmi connector on the 1215a board, but the hdmi's near diodes went out of position, can you tell me the correct position? Thank you
I've done a great handful of them too LOL. One time I lost a diode near the port and couldn't figure out what it was. (Borrowed a Playstation from Walmart : P) How would one find out what the missing component was without a schematic? Is it possible? [And they have two types of ports, get the one with the reinforced backing, so the pins don't get pushed back in. The one in your video is the opened backed one].
went to remove an hdmi port from an xbox one s today and was using my new hot air station i purchased from Amazon. I fluxed the led free solder and added some leaded solder to the ground pads and used my hot air gun at 480 degrees. I worked at it for awhile and could not for the life of me get the solder to melt to release the port. I have no idea what the deal was. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
my mate has a PS4 and it was stuck on system storage and its happened about 3 times and he put the framework back on it and it keeps going back to system storage is there a way fixing that or he needs a new console. thank you for your help
That's a bevel tip, not a chisel. T15-B are bevels T15-D are chisels. Also, you can get the FM-2030 140watt heavy duty iron. It works wonders on those larger thermal mass ground planes. And have you tried the FM-2024 or the 808 desoldering tools? Mine work great for through-hole components. I'll bet they would clear those holes with ease.
Very true. I can imagine the heavy duty FM-2030 iron and FM-2024 would not get much use when it comes to microsoldering. But in cases like these, when you're not working on the microscale, they can make your life so much easier. And the FM-206 runs every iron under the sun. Why not take advantage of it?
I got the middle part of an HDMI cable stuck in the HDMI port of my graphics card, this wasn't my main machine so I just set it off to the side and didn't worry about it but now I want to use it so could you help me.
Thanks for the clear video! Very informative. Hopefully you can help me with this. I have a PC motherboard from a 2013 Lenovo H520e. The PC never had a back IO HDMI port but the connection is there on the board (just Lenovo never put one on). If I just solder one on should I expect it to work (as long as I do it right)? The processor will support HDMI also so no issue there. It's not my main PC anymore so I'm using it to experiment and see how much I can upgrade it. Thanks
To clean out those holes I just use an electric solder sucker gun, it gives out loooooads of heat and sucks like an elephant after a peanut, clears them no problem.
nothing--the board will heat, it is nothing but metal ground plane. This board sucks heat like a sponge. If you did anything to prevent that, it would take dangerously long to remove this port--you can't get solder to melt without bringing it up to temperature, and as you heat the board the heat will transfer into the ground plane of the board getting sucked away from where you need it.
i find if u use a preheater under the pcb and a hot air iron above the pcb the port comes off clean also for install use solder wick and thin liquid flux and use solder paste to install the new hdmi port
Thats exactly what I do. Make sure you're not wearing shorts when you do it. really thats also what I use those junky $10 solder sucker irons with the bulb for too. Melt the solder with it then squeeze the bulb to blow air through the hole.
Yeah thanks for that answer... I looked it up on Google obviously, and did indeed find HDMI ports specifically for the PS4, but that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking if that is a standard HDMI port and if she in fact uses a PS4-specific one or not.
Hello, I have a problem when I turn on the blue light flashes and the console will not start, I tried almost everything. Is it possible that this is the HDMI port?
Sara Muzinski its definitely not the HDMI port. It is either the motherboard, the power supply, the hard drive, or the RAM. You’ll have to troubleshoot to find out.
attempted this. the hdmi port WOULD NOT COME OFF with a full workshop available to me. it was extremely stubborn at the anchor pins. I used a heat gun, solder iron, flux, desoldering suction. still too stubborn. some more tips on how to effectively transfer heat/ desolder would be useful
My PS4 is turning off immediately after I open up any game, disc-based or not. The PS4 first gives an on-screen warning that the PS4 is overheating, shortly followed by the light bar on the PS4 flashing a red color, 3 beeps, then a black screen. It does not, however, immediately turn off when I am on the main screen, only when I open up a game. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? (Additional information: it's the optical drive/HDD area which is overheating, and every time I turn the PS4 back on, it searches the HDD in the same fashion as though I installed a new one, and comes up with the error message that the PS4 what not shut down properly.) how fix that.
How terrible is it to melt the through-hole joints with an iron then blow the melted solder out the bottom of it with compressed air? Thats what I've been doing.
Thank you for this informative video! Quick question though, What temp are you setting your hot air gun to? We were using around 400c as we were worried about going any hotter. Any advice would be great, thanks!
Okay so I'm in the computer and cellphone business and I'm starting to see more and more soldering jobs but I have to pass on them cuz I don't have the appropriate tools. I have some experience with soldering but not a lot. I'm wondering what tools would you recommend for a decent price. I don't really have a lot of business cuz I live in a small town. But I do get business nonetheless.
i m a technician in india jesse.i hav an apple 5c it was dead, i chaged d u2 ic it started workin,bur shows accessory not supported on charging.plse help me wid d solution.
an iron with a small tip never seems to have great thermal transfer. hot tweezers are both a tiny iron and tips together a larger iron at once. The space between the tips is perfect for delivering solder to connector joints. I do 90% of my soldering with the hot tweezers.
@@JessaJones you probably won't see this, but, is it possible for someone who is barely starting out repairs(i've only repaired 2 iphones) able to successfully do this replacement? I have two ps4s that have this problem and i want to fix them to give one and keep one
Can someone help, the solder won't stick to the pads. She does it so smoothly and it just sticks perfectly! When I try it, the solder gets bunched up and then it's difficult to take off since I don't have the solder remover wire stuff.
It doesn't matter what temperature I use, my station,nozzles, and positioning are not relevant to YOUR station temp, nozzles and positioning. It is an art not a science. Figure it out!

I just learned more in 20 minutes than I have over the past 10 years! You're an excellent instructor! Thank you!
You’re the first person who mentioned that design of the board has to do with thermal heat displacement . This shows that you’re a professional 👍
Hey maam! Im 14 and i probably watched this video 17 times to try to fix my hdmi port on my ps4 and i was successful after around 2 hours.

I've done about 6 of the HDMI ports now, they can be a real pain in the ass
This is my literal nightmare! Lol
Any advice on what would be minimum required magnification for this job?
She is actually using very good quality tools and supplies, as I can see, she is using a very good desoldering wick and as she said she's using Chip Quik, which is a very good flux... so I can't understand why struggles so much to clean those support holes. The only reason I can think is the soldering iron is too low on temperature, otherwise that solder should came off very easily.
when i replace these i use a solder sucker from underneath and use hot air from the top and the holes normally come out clean first try
I have been in an electronic engineering program for 3 years and this feels more tangible and useful than about 90% of the crap i learned
Your are the only person who actually talks about how much heat is really needed!!
OMG....you saved me at the least 260. So i bought a small Zeny Rework.Tried to not wait on Chipquik next day delivery and found myself unsuccessful. But was happy with the hour practice time..lol.I received CQ today and now you and i are BFFL.(Best Friends for Life)......Thanks..

No, for some reason that I cannot find an explaination for, the PS4 (at least on the original model SAA-001 board) has one side of the socket barely soldered on on some boards. The other socket on back (some kind of connection port) is always half soldered and the HDMI is almost always half soldered or all 4 look like the joints on the right. Very bare and spare solder.
Question my mother boards 19 pins broke off well some is that fixable ??
This video actually helped me a lot when I was struggling. Now repairing HDMI ports like a pro, thanks to you :) Much repair Love
Fantastic!

Incredibly knowledgeable and thorough! Loved the video. These are exactly the type of videos I hope beginners stumble upon when starting out.
i have my own consoles repair shop back here in the middle east - Palestine, i do this regularly specially for the 10xx and 11xx ps4 models, one thing is that the replacement port sometimes does not align correctly, so i need to clean the 4 fixing holes before i replace it to so it aligns perfectly, great vid thanx
What temperature are you applying to the port with the air gun?
i've seen on other videos about 320° C
A little less than too much!
I'm deaf, I can hear other videos with no problem perhaps a redo with louder voulum. It would be great for Me.. Love the video like to get in touch on a couple of tools you use and flux solder... Please reach out to me. Thanks and Kudos.

I tried this and kept trying to get the solder on the brown connectors…however they seem to have gotten scratched off( about 4 strip places turned completely brown). DIY fail. 🤧
Was my soldering machine to hot?
Could you provide info about your rework station. Like model, features and brand? Thanks in advance
hello Lady good job 👍can you help me and answer a question? I lost an SMD component when replacing the HDMI socket. It sits directly near the HDMI jack ... there are two components .... a 2,6uf capacitor and a diode, can you tell me what that is for a diode?
Can you possibly do this at home? With other appliances? I can disassemble the machine but I don't have the air gun and equipment.
Is it not possible to use the sucker to remove the solder from those holes?
Seems like a stupid question, but this could be possible with a normal soldering iron as well, I suppose? Snip off the old connector, get rid of all the remaining pins and pieces from the old connector, clean the pads up with some flux and wick, and for the new connector just melt all four main solder joints in a circular motion to seat the connector, and then finally soldering the little pins by doing the pull-soldering method. I cant see why it wouldnt work.

Hello thanks very much for sharing your knowledge i want to know on what temperature u used the hot gun
This is a great video🎉🖤 what are the downsides of removing old solders in hole? Thanks in advance.
At 2:10. The name of the liquid she's applying anyone know? Possibly another form of flux?
I don't know how these hot air guns are designed but I wonder if I could use a culinary butane torch to do this type of job. How hot is too hot? I find it very hard to judge with the culinary torch as the flame isn't vectored to the work like that of an actual hot air gun. I wonder maybe I could add a collar with a nozzle and get the heat where i need it.
What are them parts you taped over called the shuare with black in the middle and silver on both sides was wondering

What size magnification did you use? how do you add solder to the pins without them bridging? good video
I watch alot of you soldering pros on RUclips and it always blows my mind that you've never heard of a deslodering iron.
very good work. i fix consoles and pcs for a living. and i hate how cheap sony made there hdmi ports. no back plate to stop pines from being pushed back. i have a question what would be a good pc cam to use to work on replacing the hdmi ports? using my eyes alone drivers me crazy. thanks!
The pins do they have to be inside the holes or just in the correct line and with the paste and the solder will do their job and make it work?
What irons do you use in the video? I heard you say at some point I just can't find the point in the video thanks for the video very educational.

Hallo
Can I send my Ps4 motherboard with HDMI brocken and fix and how money that is coast
With bist wishes
my mate has a PS4 and it was stuck on system storage and its happened about 3 times and he put the framework back on it and it keeps going back to system storage is there a way fixing that or he needs a new console. thank you for your help
What's a good price for replacing the power button that broke off the board?
could you use the same connector for something like a graphics card?
That's a bevel tip, not a chisel. T15-B are bevels T15-D are chisels. Also, you can get the FM-2030 140watt heavy duty iron. It works wonders on those larger thermal mass ground planes.
And have you tried the FM-2024 or the 808 desoldering tools? Mine work great for through-hole components. I'll bet they would clear those holes with ease.
I have the FM 206 with desoldering gun. Still in the box. Just not enough use for that on when soldering on microscale of iPhones.
Very true. I can imagine the heavy duty FM-2030 iron and FM-2024 would not get much use when it comes to microsoldering. But in cases like these, when you're not working on the microscale, they can make your life so much easier. And the FM-206 runs every iron under the sun. Why not take advantage of it?
I got the middle part of an HDMI cable stuck in the HDMI port of my graphics card, this wasn't my main machine so I just set it off to the side and didn't worry about it but now I want to use it so could you help me.
My branded Goot GS-100 Japanese solder sucker will suck that solder out. Its only $20 on ali_express, try that.
How much should a typical HDMI port replacement cost without parts??
For those holes, you would want to use the radioshack solder and sucker in 1 tool.. If iRadioshack hasn't completely shutdown yet anyway.
do the 4 main soldier points power any thing at all or are they just to reinforce the port-
Thanks for the clear video! Very informative.
Hopefully you can help me with this. I have a PC motherboard from a 2013 Lenovo H520e. The PC never had a back IO HDMI port but the connection is there on the board (just Lenovo never put one on). If I just solder one on should I expect it to work (as long as I do it right)? The processor will support HDMI also so no issue there.

To clean out those holes I just use an electric solder sucker gun, it gives out loooooads of heat and sucks like an elephant after a peanut, clears them no problem.
Hi this is very old but can a soldering gun replace my HDMI port
What would be the minimum magnification required to attempt this at home?
You can easily remove the solder from the holes using a desoldering gun. Every repair shop should have one and they're no longer expensive.
..Is there any way you can replace the HDMI port without having to use heat?
The same way you can take a shower without getting wet
iPad Rehab Well that's a no then lol
iPad Rehab lmfao
hey... my client destroyed the port and doing that he knocked out one of the dj transistors, where can i get them?
Sorry, what type of material did you use to prevent the board from heating with the solder? 1:50
nothing--the board will heat, it is nothing but metal ground plane. This board sucks heat like a sponge. If you did anything to prevent that, it would take dangerously long to remove this port--you can't get solder to melt without bringing it up to temperature, and as you heat the board the heat will transfer into the ground plane of the board getting sucked away from where you need it.
so in the beginning in the video what tool did u use to burn it with the chipquik
Thank you so much this video is amazing. Camera work with the microscope is amazing!!!
i find if u use a preheater under the pcb and a hot air iron above the pcb the port comes off clean also for install use solder wick and thin liquid flux and use solder paste to install the new hdmi port
Solder paste is a recipe for bridged connections! Too messy
what temperature did you have to use when applying heat to the bottom?
I've had good luck using canned air to blow the solder out of the bigger holes. Seems to work well.
Thats exactly what I do. Make sure you're not wearing shorts when you do it.
really thats also what I use those junky $10 solder sucker irons with the bulb for too. Melt the solder with it then squeeze the bulb to blow air through the hole.
turn the can upside down and spray your component, it will freeze it for testing. Thanks for your comment.
I used to blow with my mouth or tap the whole board on the table. Compressed air is a much better idea
My hdmi port is damaged and I'm not sure where to go and get it replaced
Where did you get the replacement port? Is it just a standard HDMI port or specifically for PS4? Thank you for the video.
Let Google become your best friend.
Yeah thanks for that answer... I looked it up on Google obviously, and did indeed find HDMI ports specifically for the PS4, but that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking if that is a standard HDMI port and if she in fact uses a PS4-specific one or not.
whats the trick to not flow solder when running across the pads? if that was me I'm pretty sure all the pads would bridge.
Flux
How money heat can use ant wich soldering is beter for this
What Solder iron are you using? and is the hot tweezers a must or could you survive without it ?
MY PS4s power supply has gone dead ! there is a big transformer that have melt, I suppose this could be the cause. what do You think?
You make this process look so easy and simple! Very informative video thank you.
How much do you charge to replace that port? And where are you located? Thx.
Hello, I have a problem when I turn on the blue light flashes and the console will not start, I tried almost everything. Is it possible that this is the HDMI port?
Sara Muzinski no
Sara Muzinski its definitely not the HDMI port. It is either the motherboard, the power supply, the hard drive, or the RAM. You’ll have to troubleshoot to find out.
What type of flux you are using please?
will the micro pencil work with the same soldering station as the mini hot tweezers?
Yes
attempted this. the hdmi port WOULD NOT COME OFF with a full workshop available to me. it was extremely stubborn at the anchor pins. I used a heat gun, solder iron, flux, desoldering suction. still too stubborn. some more tips on how to effectively transfer heat/ desolder would be useful
You have to watch the video -the key is using a lower melt alloy.
Is it possible to do this same method on a PS3 board ?
My PS4 is turning off immediately after I open up any game, disc-based or not. The PS4 first gives an on-screen warning that the PS4 is overheating, shortly followed by the light bar on the PS4 flashing a red color, 3 beeps, then a black screen. It does not, however, immediately turn off when I am on the main screen, only when I open up a game. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? (Additional information: it's the optical drive/HDD area which is overheating, and every time I turn the PS4 back on, it searches the HDD in the same fashion as though I installed a new one, and comes up with the error message that the PS4 what not shut down properly.) how fix that.
Where can I get mine fixed please let me know
how cost chipquik for 10grams?
This is the best video for soldering the hdmi port. Thank you so much!!!
How terrible is it to melt the through-hole joints with an iron then blow the melted solder out the bottom of it with compressed air? Thats what I've been doing.
Totally fine. As long as the joint is strong in the end you're good to go.
Excellent vid with some great hints and tips for those tough jobs. Thanks.
Thank you for this informative video!
Quick question though,
What temp are you setting your hot air gun to? We were using around 400c as we were worried about going any hotter.
Any advice would be great, thanks!
Okay so I'm in the computer and cellphone business and I'm starting to see more and more soldering jobs but I have to pass on them cuz I don't have the appropriate tools. I have some experience with soldering but not a lot. I'm wondering what tools would you recommend for a decent price. I don't really have a lot of business cuz I live in a small town. But I do get business nonetheless.
All of our equipment recommendstions are linked in the video description
What is temperature that you use on the air gun????
i m a technician in india jesse.i hav an apple 5c it was dead, i chaged d u2 ic it started workin,bur shows accessory not supported on charging.plse help me wid d solution.
Hey Jessa thanks for posting this video. Just curious, I feel like you favor your hot tweezers over an iron with a small tip, any reason why?
an iron with a small tip never seems to have great thermal transfer.
hot tweezers are both a tiny iron and tips together a larger iron at once. The space between the tips is perfect for delivering solder to connector joints. I do 90% of my soldering with the hot tweezers.
@@JessaJones you probably won't see this, but, is it possible for someone who is barely starting out repairs(i've only repaired 2 iphones) able to successfully do this replacement? I have two ps4s that have this problem and i want to fix them to give one and keep one
If you put it on a rework machine and pre heat the board they come real easy.,
Great video .
what is gel solder
What flux are you using here ?
mailin.repair/amtech-nc-559-v2-30-cc-16160.html
very impressed with your approach and skill , the best repair i've seen for this common problem with PS4's
Can someone help, the solder won't stick to the pads. She does it so smoothly and it just sticks perfectly! When I try it, the solder gets bunched up and then it's difficult to take off since I don't have the solder remover wire stuff.
Use a bigger tip that has enough thermal mass for the job
What the name of the gel that you use on the board?
@ 9:56 those holes look like a job for my hakko-fr300. I could probably remove the whole thing with it.
undoubtedly so
Those joints on the right look like there already out of the board, from wear n tear?
Yes--these ports get ripped out when the ps4 is damaged
WHAT TEMP DO YOU USE ON YOUR SOLDER AND CAN I USE ANY BRAND OF FLUXOR SHOULD I USE THE BRAND YOU USE.TRYING THIS REPAIR MYSELF PLEASE HELP
Stop yelling. Figure out your temperature and flux through practice on a dead board
I'm not yelling......I don't have no time to practice imma dive right on into it with a lot of help from your video and maybe you know......
I'm still waiting on a reply back on a quote I requested
please
It doesn't matter what temperature I use, my station,nozzles, and positioning are not relevant to YOUR station temp, nozzles and positioning. It is an art not a science. Figure it out!
