Akai MPK mini repair

I accidentally broke the USB connector on the AKAI MPK mini(Professional).
It wasn't so easy, but I did fix it without giving up.
Finally, I can practice making music.

Very helpful video for my own repair, especially the part about how to remove the PCB while accommodating the protruding sustain jack. Thanks!

[@27needles1]

Bro, just want to say thank you so much for your video. If not I may have broke my rotary knob trying to remove it by pulling or twisting.... Who knew there was a cap on top with the hidden screw inside 😅 Bless you 🙌

[@manjkhan5826]

Hi 27needles1 Yeah you are right! I was also trying to dismantle the knob but never working until i saw the circle rubber cover!

[@dmitryivanov2215]

@@manjkhan5826 hi, have a problem with one key, open and clean and work, after one week not working, think maybe rubber line to slide and not connect or wet air in Vietnam. Maybe you can help, because every week I must open keys and clean it for work

[@williamstevens7090]

What a service you are providing here. These USB B ports on these are breaking all the time. You are helping me get 'unstuck' . My pads were torn up-your close up pictures helped me retrace the connections to the USB on my MPK mini. Now for some microsurgery.

[@bootysmaka22]

The usb port on the unit I was borrowing got damaged after hurrying to get gear off the stage at a show (I left the USB cable plugged in and threw it in my bag 😪) glad I will be able to fix it, thanks for the breakdown and repair!

[@supermonkiey]

You're my freaking hero, and you're a legend for never giving up, and going all the way! Thanks!

[@NataliaKarolinaOficial]

Thank you so much for making this video. My akai needs to be repaired exactly as yours.

[@wireless80211x]

Nice, Saves some time for a tear down and have a look at the PCB layout, components, ISP/jtag header and IC ID and what not. Don't fight with the USB connector bro. 😂

Hello Sir, what is that small element,is that a diode? that is my problem,

[@obiejp3936]

hey man just wondering if you could drop the link for the usb b connectors?

[@millertime261]

Does anyone know where to go for parts for the joystick? Dropped my mpk the other week and after that when moving the joystick to the right it gets stuck and doesnt spring back to the middle like it used to.

[@grahmododnel5371]

Hey am I at the part where I’m removing the old solder, but it isn’t working. The iron melts normal solder but really isn’t getting anywhere with the solder holding the USB connector in place. Any tips anyone thank you in advance

[@mazut3677]

Thanks for the video, tell me what is the value of the resistor in diagram R18. Lost smd.

[@tevschannel8898]

How much would you charge me to fix mine I have not got it yet but it need the same repair

[@lucasmoraesilva]

hello good afternoon What is the name of the black piece you replaced? Mine burned down but I don’t know the description of it. 8:32

[@capcityorgnzr]

ManJ...do you have the part number or a link? Also, at 8:05 you remove an element...why? Do I need to do this as well if I'm replacing the USB port?

[@manjkhan5826]

Hi I didn't want to remove it at 8:05, it was damaged and automatically removed. You don't need to remove it when you replace USB port but becarefull unexpected damage by your hand and tools. You want to have USB part number or the element part number?

Thank you. What happened at 6:47? What happen to that IC part? Did you replace it? How do you know that number of the part?

[@Persistentsungsil]

Oh I see. I can see from other replys. .. It came our of the circuit board.

[@andrewserich2076]

Aha, the joystick had a screw, that little fukka did my head in ...so I just left it connected when I pulled my MPK apart after water damage...THANKS HEAPS.ps always add some fesh solder to the pad that you want to desolder and add a little Flux.

[@nneolawilson678]

All the lights on my Akai mini is all on at the same time when I plugged it on my laptop any idea of what I can do to fix it ...... And my FL studio is not detecting the Akai mini also....

[@manjkhan5826]

I think you said no lights at the moment when you plugged it, It means the connector has been damaged, you need to open. If it is you can follow my work

[@sshawtydzez4548]

my usb plug is broken. please tell me what it is called so that I can order a new one

Hello. The pads of my akai do not work. I followed your video to take it apart, cleaned it up and nothing happens. When pressed they do not receive any signal. (I tried to do it like you, only from the plate and neither) Do you know if you have a solution, friend? D: Greetings

Hi AM, If i were you, i would try to check that all directions are ok or not. 1.when all is not ok, it must be broken. need to be replaced(i checked the knob and small PCB but i did not see, i can think of another second hand or useless one then can be replaced) 2.when some of them are ok, need to open and clean the small part of contact.

Do yourself a favor and get a Hakko or a Hakko rip off. There's a few good Weller's. Just make sure they use Hakko style replacement tips and wands.

Hey, Thank you for makin this video, I have a question, I was trying to just soldier the wire w/out getting the USB type b mother connector(got one today but messed up the pins while trying to install, so just wanted to soldier the wires completely to the board, ex like dis video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKfLmWCZjNWAsKs)) , but am confused as to which one out of the four holes are the data/ power and ground, would u know if there is a schematic of the circuit because I can't find it online,
