BRO! you saved me! This video and your first video on this console were my guide and mirrored my problems exactly! My retimer chip originally was visibly damaged so I was confident in starting there, but I was completely stumped until this one! So stoked to fix my console and I owe it all to you! Thanks so much for the good content man. This was a wild ride!
I love your excitement when you got it to work!! I'm about to have that same experience with the help of your tutorial here! Thank you so much!! I'll edit my comment and let you know how it goes! :)
Been Watching your videos for a while now, and definitely been such a great help. Successfully Bypassed a couple Series X's. Thanks to you i have a question though. How was this discovered and has it ever been attempted on a Series S?
How did you figure out where those traces go? I loved your reaction seeing that work . I've been having this issue and have sooooo many hours into mine..I think I have to try this, just to see if it works, because I've tried everything else... Can we still not get these chips?
@@_mylastname I am guessing 4K will not work, but I think because removing the IC and using the bypass will not let the HDMI circuit enable 4K - Native 1080p should still work though
@@_mylastname your hdmi retimer is bad or not seated properly. I removed a working esd booster for no reason while the problem was my retimer. Did the bypass and 4k works
@@don4techy I parted that console out. I had to give up..Ive done a bunch since so I almost can't remember this one, bit I believe the retimer was good(no shorts around it anyway).. heck, maybe it was.. I'll pay more attention now that I know a bit more
Great Fix! Question what does the console loose by going with the bypass instead of replacing the chip? I've been hunting for a ESD Diode Pack NFD Chip for weeks to help a friend repair his series X.
I did this on mine, after my old port repair failed. Changed the retimer, no image..I tried this and now my console won't turn on 😔 the line where you have 3 connections,(connected to the small cap(C1) in the middle) is grounded WHERE THAT WHITE PAINT DOT IS. so it's grounding everything it touches.. Man I can't believe they won't release these parts. UPDATE! I found that the line where that white paint is, is pin 19 and on the other side of the board, my trace repair for pin 19 had a scratch next to it and solder had attached and caused 19 to go ground..I can't believe I found that issue . Now to repair AGAIN, what was a 19 PADS repair and redo this bypass to see if it'll work. Whew!! This stuff is nuts!!
Nfd chip? Could be a short in the chip. I just fixed the same isseu. 😅was a tedius process to replace the chip.... but it works now 3 weeks later still works good :😊
This should only be done for testing purposes. I never class this as a repair and there is a reason why I buy every xbox one x donor board I can find so I can source these esd as they are not available to buy from supplier.
My only question is could this give you issues later on cause a diode is a one way valve. I mean I like to think engineers put this stuff there for a reason.
indeed , my best advice if doing this bypass is to tell your customer to never hot plug the hdmi cable ie make sure its plugged in before powering the console never plug or unplug it while powered
Does anyone know if I can get a replacement C24 (as pictured at 2:57 mark) capacitor from an Xbox One S board? As I don't have any Xbox Series X donor boards.
I just tried this today on a Series X cause I found anomalies in the diode mode readings on the hdmi port pins but still this didn't solve my issue the xbox still turns on for maybe 2 seconds and then turns off.
Got one of these my self today pad were toast under u21 after coke was split into the console , going to follow this bypass but that 5 pin voltage reg "U82" next to U21 is also gone , any chance you have a part number or what donner board you took it from
@@jet613 Any chance you could link that ? looking at the datasheet for the 2065DBVR there doesn't seem to be a BGA pin compatible version so would need to be deadbug'd on - Sorry forgot about U82 and was thinking about U21 you are correct.

Good stuff! Not many videos on this ESD diode pack, I already replaced the retimer chip with no luck, this is my next step. Thanks for posting!
Did this fix your issue as well?
@@reminon unfortunately it did not, gotta recheck the HDMI chip
Your channel really deserves more subs and views‼️
I completely agree with you!

Looks like a STMicro part; you can get the part number off of the package and look up the datasheet on their website
Sometimes by looking at the chip part number you can find diagrams online.
Well done man! Great job.. I do not think 4K will work with the bypass, but at least you have revived this Series X in 1080p at least
Why wouldn't it work in 4k?
@@_mylastname I am guessing 4K will not work, but I think because removing the IC and using the bypass will not let the HDMI circuit enable 4K - Native 1080p should still work though
@@TweakTips i did the bypass and still no image . I had to give up and sell it for parts.. Too many hours into it. Can't figure it out..

no 4k resolution, limited to 1440p you need to set it manually and some other settings to get thing working
@@Ntcartuchos Thank you
Great job man!
Thank you so much buddy. it worked.
the image removed from the link broth can you send me plz
Worked for me, Thanks!
Brand new to this type of work, I accidently de-soldered and lost the R18 and R19 (I assume they're diodes?), how should I go about replacing those?
Insane repair!!!!!

One X curse following the series X :(
Nice Job!
You would at least think Microsoft would allow STI to sell these IC's to us so we could fix their design mistakes!
This should only be done for testing purposes. I never class this as a repair and there is a reason why I buy every xbox one x donor board I can find so I can source these esd as they are not available to buy from supplier.
Hey Dave, Would you be able to tell me the value of the diode that is located at EG24?
Could anyone tell me what size the R19 cap is?
Dude, it works in series s? thanks
Working a series x that a “corporate store” worked on and they butchered the hdmi port. Shorted pins and I believe they messed with esd ic as well smh
I wonder how that happened. Good job!
Have one with same issue, replace HDMI as it was damaged originally, then redriver chip, and now I am hoping I can find those next. 😂
My only question is could this give you issues later on cause a diode is a one way valve. I mean I like to think engineers put this stuff there for a reason.

@@HecTechFPV did you know they even sell HDMI surge protectors out there look em up it's pretty cool
Hello friend, do you have the schematic for the Xbox series s? I have one on my bench with the same damaged component. Thanks
Did you ever find a schematics for the series s bro?
Does anyone know if I can get a replacement C24 (as pictured at 2:57 mark) capacitor from an Xbox One S board? As I don't have any Xbox Series X donor boards.
Would this be the same for Xbox Series S?
Were you ever able to find the ESD Diode or is the bypass the only fix for now?
Do you know how to make Xbox Series S ESD Diode Pack NFD Chip Bypass ?
after bypass are u getting 4k image?
no bypass for the xbox series S?
Where can i purchase this chip
I just tried this today on a Series X cause I found anomalies in the diode mode readings on the hdmi port pins but still this didn't solve my issue the xbox still turns on for maybe 2 seconds and then turns off.
Dumb because you won't get 4k jumping the ESD. Why have a Series X for only 1080p capability? Wait for donor boards and set it aside
Link isn't working anymore for pin out my g
Imma need that big dogg
Back log of 300 consoles? Lmfao . Full of shit.
Got one of these my self today pad were toast under u21 after coke was split into the console , going to follow this bypass but that 5 pin voltage reg "U82" next to U21 is also gone , any chance you have a part number or what donner board you took it from
get it from xbox one, it is near ethernet port. I've seen it done by "the coder" and Ive done it as well.
U82 can be replaced with TPS2065DBVR. Shows a swappable part on the schematics for the series x
