How the hell are they in such poor condition, what is wrong with people look after your stuff man

[evan_ack]

This is why I handle every piece of tech I own like it is a new born child

[steelsmith]

You are very well versed in electronics, I have learned a lot and for that I thank you.

[davidrivard]

My brother did this with his hdmi port 🤦‍♂️. Broke 5 land pads. It's just difficult because the pads were <1mm. Still in a pickle but I'm going to try copper wire stranders from the pins

[Captaincasey]

As many times I have watched you fix things it never gets old....love what you do. Even when your not able to fix them.

[saraschaudhary]

You are spreading a good msg that don’t increase e-waste…instead repair stuff and make everything long last. Reduce Reuse and Recycle! Good job mate!

[Michael_Douglas]

Dude this is incredible - I wish I knew electronics so well
You rule man

[bjn]

I've replaced about a half dozen of these fan connectors just like this. These surface mount connectors are not very durable and will very easily rip the pads right off the PCB. Through-hole for life!

[TheGohthecrow]

This fix is talent. Soldering anyone can do with practice but this wiring is simple to get it working but not simple to do IMO.

[NotTheHeroStudios]

I love these types of repairs. Blatantly obvious issue, but at the same time I hate laying pads lmfao

[bland]

I understand how some issues occur but other times I'm just like how the heck did somebody break it in that specific way. Seriously how do you rip that connector off the board without purposely trying to?

[ilikewatermelons]

that would explain why its yelling at you also props for wearing mmv merch

Me and my friends have all been getting overheating problems on old and new PS5‘s. After taking it apart we all discovered the same thing: the liquid metal was completely uneven. After respreading it the PS5 was back to normal, even after intense performance testing the cooler was as quiet as on day 1.

For MOST of you guys, you do not need to clean your ps5 if it’s visually clean (no signs of dust accumulation). You also do not need any external products. The PS5 is easily capable of running high-end games on maximum graphics but the LIQUID METAL FLAW is significant.

Legal action needs to be taken since we are very sure this is the main problem for all the overheating issues. Sony did answer but they do not care and offered a $300 repair after sending them the pictures.

I love your videos man,
I hope next time you will fix printers

[lesterjohnson]

Wow. Do you do repairs for the public or is this your hobby for
YouTube views? You would be a treasure in the Philadelphia/suburban areas.

[jesserushing]

What do I do if it’s not doing the three beeps. My console will sometimes just completely shut off. Almost like the power goes out. No beep, no warning just instant black screen and PlayStation shut off. I think I have the first gen ps5 that came out in the first initial wave, and I’ve heard that the parts on those aren’t that great. I’ve tried cleaning the ps5, but haven’t got a t5 screwdriver to take off the fan protectors port. Not sure what to do

[cattocs]

Funny how in other video people would usually go "safety has left the chat"

Either way, this is fantastic.

[bandosensei-]

Is this a faulty PlayStation or are the owners responsible?

I don't see how the fan could get removed without it being treated very poorly or the problem was on Sony's end

[Celture]

You scared the hell out of me I thought mine overheated again 😭

[nandiito]

I soldered mine before watching this video but I extended wires to the fan. I could Not put the piece back on the board but the fan did not work. Do the lateral connectors do something? Because the fan only has 3 wires I figured the side ones didn’t do anything just support it in place
