I just wanted to say thanks for all these videos Louis. I don't work on computers at all, but I do use troubleshooting (of a kind, not electronics) everyday. I have learned more on how to troubleshoot with out loosing hair and teeth than anything I was taught in school. I cannot express how much I appreciate that.

[@Hostilegeese]

Honestly the best troubleshooting methods I learned were in the Navy, it was electrical but it applies to mechanical and control systems as well. You start by asking what the symptoms are then you start at a high level and ask what functions are involved in this. then you identify a point somewhere in the middle where you can test if it's giving the expected output and you test there. From there you rule out the known good side and split the unknown side in half to try to identify the faulted circuit and you just keep repeating until you get to a component. From the component you work outwards confirming there's no additional damage. An important note is that you should never test anything without an articulable reason, at that point you're just guessing instead of troubleshooting

[@tewindle]

I have no idea why I keep watching these videos..love the bike ride through New York, love the real estate videos, love the board repair videos. I will never do board repair, but love just gaining an understanding of anything that interests me. But today, to hear Louis explain how political affiliation is not important to gaining an understanding of what interest you, that is the reason I keep watching. To continually hear how people continue to dislike someone for who they support politically just amazes me; they are so influenced by what others think and they build a hatred of people for their own lack of open mindedness!

Hey Louis , the repair thing only applies to domestic products like washing machines and tumble dryers . The wording states "Appliances ". The manufactures will only have to supply repair shops , not individuals . Its a start but not what everyone wanted . The manufacturers talk about liability but you can take a washing machine apart and electrocute yourself without access to parts so that is a nonsense. There was something in the article about the fact that some products break when just out of warranty , theres a surprise . One little chip with a countdown timer built in and away you go

I can understand that viewpoint in general, but Trump is a bit of a special case. At this point, Pro-Trump/Anti-Trump is not just about liking or disliking a politician.

Just an update on the repair bill they are working on in the EU right now. It is intended to make devices repairable at all and make spare parts available at all. Sadly I think it means it is sufficient for the vendor to have spare parts available for their products and their repair facilities. And right now the bill is also mainly on larger appliances, the ten years are intended for like dishwashers, washing machines etc., For s aller Things it is 7 years I think. Not perfect, but still better than scrapping a broken device after 3 or 4 years because no spare parts are available

You probably have no chance if you have replaced something tied to the motherboard . Most likely the same set up as the iphones
