Nice fix Sorin! I hate trashed laptops like this. One problem fixed - you have another. I had this kind of job recently. Customer gave me trashed Asus. Told me to put SSD instead of DVD, Install Windows, upgrade RAM. Before do anything I checked if the computer is working in the first place. Surprisingly - he did. Then I assembled laptop back again he was dead. Spend hours to figure out the problem, and found that power cable was dodgy. Laptop was opened like thousand times before by the customer itself (screws damaged, in wrong places, different sizes, used even screws for wood!) A few pins were partly broken. I told the customer about the problem, he agreed to took it back and had no complains. After few hours, he contacted me and blamed that I damaged his laptop. Keyboard, touchpad was not working, because he lifted WHOLE screwed motherboard with cables still in places. In the end of the day, I was one who is guilty. So yeah, dodgy laptops and dodgy customers should be avoided in any possible way.
@@sodiumtechnologiesug366 Don't think so. Its a customer after all. Just do your best, and like Sorin said - "if I don't check that connector, most likely customer come back and say "You broke my touchpad". So take your time, fix that you can fix to avoid any problems, if needed, just inform customer about situation. If he agrees with that you offered and advised - it's a win. Dunno, I'm talking from my point of view. Maybe someone comes with better idea and story,
Thank you sir you're the best i am watching your videos since tow years and it helps me a lot with my small repairing project here in Damascus, wish you wealth and health and more success
we love you sorin.but we never have charging port problems in our country.im very shocked to see how many charging port jobs you do i n your videos.love from sri lanka
Not many business do this any more.. usually they say oh it will be 50 bucks to fix.. and when it is done the job is 500 dollars when you paid 100 bucks for the lap top.. Only honest business men do business the way you do.. and there seems to me to be less and less of those every day.. thanks Sorin..
i know. shit ive got a lenovo ideapad z370, it literally looks brand new. the only thing is that the front cover has 3 very deep scratches, the keyboard is worn and the plastic has become brittle. nothings been replaced on the system physically. ive done upgrades on the processor to a core i5, changed the original hdd to a 512GB ssd, applied new thermal paste (MX-4) and lubricated the fan. its from 2011.
Brilliant as always, I have a charging issue with a Lenova Yogi Book, sent it back to Lenova, just 3 months outside the warranty and they wanted £158 to replace thetab LV KB assembly Wacom AP101 604 GB, A tab LV YB1 X90 USB FPC and a TB LV Micro USB Cable CD 22 1 m 2 BLACK ,and TAB lV micro USB cable CD 22 1 m 2a black , the machine brand new was only £278 so their repair would amount to 58% of the actual purchase price.I then discovered this is a fairly common fault reported by many people but Lenova didn't care, I wrote to them appealing to their better nature but no joy, decided against the repair as I can charge it ,I Just have to wiggle the charging cable around until the light comes on, sure wish you lived near me here in the UK.
Sir your laptop technician skills are amazing, I've recently had a problem with my Lenovo laptop G50-30 it switches off automatically while working from it. Don't really know what seems to be the problem, I think I need to replaced it with a better and faster one. Keep up the good work your videos are very inspiring.
Thanks for the video. You give many universal tips, which can point someone in the right direction. One thing : Is there a reason why you don't use a hot glue gun? They heat the glue out of a small nozzle, so they're very useful for precise work. They're very cheap too. Maybe it can save you some time?
I think because hot glue gun heats up way longer and they are olways broken , hot air reaching operating temparature in few seconds , if you have skill in your hands you dond need precision 😜
when i disassemble a laptop i always prefer screen lid in upright position rather then shut. i broke enough hinges to learn this. i am not saying you caused hinges to broke and i believe they were been broken for a while but generally if you unscrew the hinges from bottom and lift the screen up you will highly likely to break the hinges from base because of wear and tear and the pressure.
Great content !! I repair hinges too and to me best combo is two component epoxy just on screw stands and hot glue to seall it all.. It will never came apart.. Hot glue usualy holds good for some time, depends on a user... but it's not very good permanent solution
I would not mind paying for the broken thing that was found in the process, like repairing the hinge. But I bet many people get mad in such situations and Sorin just doesn't want to deal with that.

Daca mai patesti asa sa ai iluminare dar fara afisare, asteapta 1-2 minute.
For hindges i personaly use acrilic resin for dental fixtures. Two component cold cured for reparing acrilic dentures. Liquid monomer and powder polimer, bonds in 10min. Some laptops have mixed plastics whit too much policarbonate in the mix, only than bond can be problematic. Othervise its beter that original
You can tell by looking at it that it's being used in a high humidity environment. The owner may have a humidifier or live in a damp area but you can tell whenever zoomed in that everything has that slimy/gunky coating on it from electronics being used in a damp environment. It won't last too much longer, in my experience.
11:10 you are taking your chances. Someone has been already messed up with this laptop. That's why the first question to the customer should be "has this laptop ever been opened before?". To avoid any future issues.
Sorry I misread the date ? I will try to find a more recent video where you show that tool . Hello those cool clamp pliers are not sold anymore ? The models I see are bigger (Woolkraft and others) I have those kind but small may be better for delicate pressing (?) regards
I have a lenovo yoga 3 pro that is completely dead. No lights. But I get voltage in some places. Ordered new connector for power to motherboard. Still nothing. What parts in the laptop can I remove to get some diagnose? Everything? Thanks
Was the connector that was desconected when you connected bsck create estatic you forgot discharged the static well basically you did it taking off components but the easy way was pressing the power button for 30 seconds.
@@za-se4jv Thanks for the Information Man, funnily enough that's what I thought it might be. Just bought a Wow 1F Pro to replace the well used 1F ive been using 18mnths.
to diagnose a faulty charging port is easy and done in less then 1minute!...Multimeter on resistance and test the plus minus pins...is there a high ohm readings, its clear that the Charging Port is connected to the board!! if there is still no readings or open, then maybe the Port is the problem!! this were the easyest and cheapest fix! if there is a short , its difficulter, but even with a short you know, that the port is connected correct to the pcb
that's why always tell leave it we will check what is problem and than call you to inform you what are options. fix hinge repair board or power jack etc... idk for me this is more professional than giving direct price and thinking what can go wrong on the way of repairing it.
This job was nightmare, as at end of video where computer did not come on, So yes you fixed it but if at this stage it was not fixable do you still charge them for your time or give them it back free of charge.
Hello mate, I have a problem with my laptop. Only works with Intel Graphic Card. It's no working with my GTX 880M, I need to disable on the BIOS and use only Intel Graphic Card. When I try to USE my GTX 880M laptop switch off. Do you have a repair shop?
I put+ into the charge port and groud in the USB or HDMI it shows 20v , what does it mean？and I plug in power cable check the voltage is 0.44v very low on the power jet. please help
I have a Lenovo P72 The power supply that will only charge my laptop battery when I shutdown. The power supply will not run the pc without the battery. I have tried to use with a new power supply and get the some problem. When I have the power supply plugged in with battery. I do not see the little power plug icon next to the battery icon in the bottom tool bar. I even unplugged the battery and then plugged in the power supply only. I saw the pc reacted to it. I pressed the power button on lap top. It powered up without the battery at first. I got it to the point of logging in ............... Then it just turned off with out me doing anything more. Do you know what in the fix to this problem?
good evening sir I have a Toshiba laptop its shown power and fine running but blank screen.and some time its shown smos better is low what can I do show me
After applying thermal paste my laptop is not coming on, its not charging too. I did everything that non professional could do. Any suggestion? Is my motherboard dead because of thermal paste?
Check the screen connector and other connectors and pins for oxidation, dirt, dust residue under the microscope, probably you will find some in some places, if this is the case clean it, hopefully this will fix those issues, worth a try 😁, good day.
Right now I'm dealing with the PS4 of Doom, my original PS4. It will work fine for days in a row and then it won't work at all. Nothing changes. All cables are fine. TV is fine, it's not the TV. It will work and then just decide not to. I'll take it apart and do nothing to it, reassemble it and it will work again. This repeats forever. I've done it probably 10x since I've owned it. Some have claimed it's probably a bad HDMI IC chip but it tests fine and a new chip is too expensive test the theory. Power supply shows 11.95v. HDMI port is in perfect condition. APU isn't skewed or lifted anywhere. All tests show normal traces and components. It gets full power to the PSU ans out of it. It just decides when it wants to work based on...? It's infuriating. It makes zero sense.

I love this channel
Really a very decent and 100% realistic
This channel is the place to be for both novice and professionals. Thanks for always sharing your amazing knowledge.
Amazing diagnostic, We keep learning from you every job that you do ...Thank you very much.

42:31 The face I make every time I thought I fixed an issue on a customer computer 😂
Ingenious and practical solution ! Consummate professional Sir ! Fascinating !!!
This video helped me fix my computer. I ended up having to plug in the power bar to the shorter power bit of cable...thank you.
The master Sorin love hot glue, i love Sorin's channel so i love hot glue too 😂
He really does to the extent of calling super glue hot glue😂😂
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I like 5 minute epoxy myself. A bit more time, but a solid hold.
I laughed at at dodgy power on. 50 mins in, "hey, there's no picture. this is crazy."
Not many business do this any more.. usually they say oh it will be 50 bucks to fix.. and when it is done the job is 500 dollars when you paid 100 bucks for the lap top..

Your shop always gets easy repairs
The Customer pay charging port and you repair the hole Laptop 😉😁
Thank you MR G (glue). Educational and entertaining, just what youtube was designed to do.
What a mess they made of that, broken plastic, and screen support plus rust/water damage.
People treat laptops like crap :-(

First is a good and honest person.
"Sometime we have this kind of jobs!" I am envious!!!! why i ALWAYS have this kind of jobs.........
Excellent, that was a new one for me,well done. I would be replacing the bottom case at a minimum.
Your mouse matches the red laptop perfectly! :)
Verry good diagnostic! Step by step ang very nice job! Thanks à lot.🤗🤗🤗

Right. I'm no pro but that hinge job seems extremely temporary and will fail very shortly.
try a magnet on the screwdriver to hold the screws keeps them in place and easy to reattach...
I would not mind paying for the broken thing that was found in the process, like repairing the hinge. But I bet many people get mad in such situations and Sorin just doesn't want to deal with that.

Cool video. What is on Louise's channel flux, there is the hot glue. Never enough.
great job and very usefull informations from a professional
I just learned how to do a quick diagnosis thank you
How many here loves and are passionate like this about their job? Raise your hands.....
NO! Not you Sorin!
LOL
I think I need electric segaret .I love this chanel.
Very interesting and good teaching!!
yes that hinge if you don't fix it will be your fault and as you said they will bring it back
I have a lenovo yoga 3 pro that is completely dead. No lights. But I get voltage in some places. Ordered new connector for power to motherboard. Still nothing. What parts in the laptop can I remove to get some diagnose? Everything? Thanks

Was the connector that was desconected when you connected bsck create estatic you forgot discharged the static well basically you did it taking off components but the easy way was pressing the power button for 30 seconds.
Hi Sorin, great Vids. Can I ask what make your Pen Screwdriver is, looking to replace mine. I would greatly appreciated a reply my good Man.
@@za-se4jv Thanks for the Information Man, funnily enough that's what I thought it might be. Just bought a Wow 1F Pro to replace the well used 1F ive been using 18mnths.
Sorin, how difficult will it be to remove the cover in the future, given that it is glued with hot glue?
Heat up the bit where the glue is
Nice work sir,but how do you always know we're to find the fault,is it that I have to know more about schematics or?.cuz am new to laptop hardware 🙏🙏
Your videos are appreciated. Thankyou!
Would not touching the ground break the charging port if it was not broken with a short?
Awesome video. Explain it so well.
Sorin, how did you know your iron was too hot immediately? What did you drop the temp to?
Thank you , u let us learn how to fix fast , i love u man 🤩🤩🤩
I don't do "quick assesments" because of this, last job that came had an Ant colony inside, you can "measure" that with a tester
Nicely done, sir.
What’s an interesting video, nice job Sorin
Very fantastic. I learned more from this channel. Please could you estimate how much do you charge to clients for every laptops you fix.
i think he said before 25 for charging port and 80 for motherboard repair

After applying thermal paste my laptop is not coming on, its not charging too. I did everything that non professional could do. Any suggestion? Is my motherboard dead because of thermal paste?
We have suffered. From charging port to hinge to display, that's weird
Probably water damage is also on the memory pin connectors too not just on the memory pins 🤔

Specs on test leads? Power supply/ multimeter?
Thank you very much sir ❤️ for this big pro tip
from Egypt thanks alot
