Fantastic how you keep calm. (May I say you?) And how lovingly you suffer. Yes, some things are not fun. I think my rectifier is going to quit soon too. It's still doing what it's supposed to do, sometimes it stops working after being switched on for a long time. This repair is quite a lot of work, I don't know if I'd do it to myself.... a few hours of work, keep your patience and don't destroy too much. Thanks for showing me the repair, now I know what to expect.

Hello i have a more severe damage, including the board is damaged, the rectifier is no longer there it simply melted, also the ECQUL capacitor is very damaged, so i think there is a specific problem on the z5500 system that conducts to this damage! Also it was veey easy to remove them using Hot Air station and flux paste!

Does the metal shielding on the bottom of the N64 motherboard have to be removed? Or, can you keep it attached, even after the no cut mod is installed? I’m asking because it looks like you only reinstalled the metal shielding that covers the top of the motherboard.

Hi, my Z5500 stopped working properly recently. I've uploaded videos on my channel to show the issue, then I did the control pod bypass by cutting all the wires from the control pod and joining some, and I have a rattling sound now from Tim sub, after removing the sub back panel and putting it back on. I have videos these things. Please look at my channel. Can you please help me getting it working again as per normal with the control pod working? I have a multimeter, cheap soldering iron, flux and solder. No solder stand, no soldering iron with temperature control, no iron wool/sponge to remove solder from soldering iron. Thanks

Fun fact: I found it's much easier usind that fine tip tweezers which i bought just for this work, to grasp the HEAD on each pin with your tweezers carefully (that shiny ball at tip of each pin) by which you can then pull it in the right direction to re-orient the bent pin! Faster too!

As the owner of a (working) H4n, I was fascinated to see the innards without risking my own unit. Thank you. It was also nice to see a great example of avoiding ewaste. However … since you can get a working H4n for about $70-$80 USD, does it really make sense financially? Still, I enjoyed the video and appreciate your effort.

No don't touch the switch. Problem is at the front.end and very easy to fix... Unscrew the Lens holder / focus adjuster for access... The connection between the black anodised tube and the bright aluminium disc where the Led is mounted becomes high resistance .. Just make a deep score with a small sharp screwdriver between these two metals to cause a connection again and torch will work 100% again... Only takes 30 seconds to do this and you're done.... I have repaired a lot of these and works everytime.... Good luck.

This is months late, but I really wanted to find out if the four 100nF 100V 0803 SMD Capacitors, C35 etc. you mentioned replacing at 1:10:06 in the video, did they actually go bad? Did you test them at the time for their capacitance values? Only asking because parts sourcing and access for me is a bit difficult where I am. I have a replacement bridge rectifier (W06M with higher overvoltage allowance, but seemingly higher _reverse current_ but someone told me it should still be safe)
@cookingcomponents78585 ай бұрын
Hi, I don't think they were bad, but I decided to change them anyways. Mostly because I was not shure if I damaged them while removing the glue. But I think these Capacitors are only for "Electromagnetic Interference" reasons, so if one or more of them get destroyed while exchanging the Rectifier, you can just leave them off. They are not essential for this circuit to work properly. The reverse current of your rectifier is measured at maximum blocking voltage, so it is a lot lower at the operating voltage in your case. (See Figure 4 in the Datasheet) So I see no issue there.

@@cookingcomponents7858 Wowee, just thought I would update everybody. I finally got the time (and Patience) to disassemble and removed the circuit board to replace the bridge rectifier, but to my horror when I flipped over the board the bridge rectifier seemed ok. However there seemed to be at least three SMT capacitors C23, C27 and C28 that appear to have "exploded". One (C27) looked as if it had completely melted away and taken out one side of the solder pad and tracing. The others seemed to have burned away the solder pads on one side. Needless to say If I was gonna try and fix this it might be tedious since I am not sure if this is the only damaged component on the board.... siggghhhh.. Wonder if any independent party did a replacement design board or something. Anyway. Salty tears for now. Stuck with a wireless earbuds for the moment.

I just turned mine on yesterday and got a loud buzz from all speakers including the sub even at zero volume with no input source connected. So I tore the amp apart to find resistor 21 burnt but still showing 36 OHM. When R21 is removed the speaker don't power on so starting there. I have a replacement new control pod and does the same exact thing with it connected. Everything is half ass soldered and glue everywhere but isn't reading conductive. The rectifier area cleaned up but still looks bad so that's my next step. Hopefully I can save these or will just order a replacement sub on eBay.

Costing me more than I wanted to spend but still the best 5.1 computer speakers out there.

If you had bent pins and fixed it, but one of your RAM channels still isn't working, you might still have pins, that do not contact properly. Check them again and perhaps try to clean the pins or your CPU. A little bit of skin oil could be ruining the contact. And one missing signal can can take a whole RAM channel down.

The hole in the speaker magnet creates a central air draft zone for depressurization. this helps balance air pressure between the outside and inside of the speaker. This increases the escursion capabilities of the speaker membrane. If there were no hole, the speaker would have difficulty vibrating at high amplitude. It's like trying to squeeze the end of a syringe that gets clogged. it's difficult.
