Apple Imac Logic Board Fix With The Help Of Flir One Thermal Imager/Camera: Find Short Capacitor

[@ronaldoquintos1675]

I fixed a 58 inch Hisense TV that way. One of the SMD ceramic caps was shorted on the LCD controller board. I used to fix CRT TV back in the days but what goes wrong with those were different from today’s surface mount board. I would have never imagined a ceramic capacitor can short because those did not go bad in the old circuit boards. It was usually a shorted fly back transistor or fly back transformer. Sometimes I just put low voltage directly into the suspected capacitor

Very good Informative.

Thanks for the comment!

how to jumper in power supply,and 3v or

[@electron7373]

Around 7:20 the Flir seemed to be showing about 110 C , but it looked like 10 C because the 100's digit was over the light yellow of the image.

Amazing eyes, friend!!! It's true.

Excellent teacher.....you make complex things....simple. :)

[@B.E.H.]

Whats de version of Flir, PLEASE ??? G1, G2 or G2 ???

[@fixapplenow]

G2

@@fixapplenow thanks for reply!!! Just one more thing... How much voltage and current values do you injected, friend???

[@fixapplenow]

@@B.E.H. if i'm not mistaking 1 Volt 2 Amps

[@B.E.H.]

@@fixapplenow after what AMPERE (current) it starts to show one hot point in the camera ???

[@bifoutdjamel]

flir model ?

[@RynaxAlien]

Would ESD damaged mirrorless camera motherboard appear to have abnormal temperature under thermal camera?

[@lol99-x9t]

Hard to replace creamic capacitor !! Cant find same one😊

Hi, I have a 2017 iMac Pro with no LED power lights PS is good. Removed ram, hd's, battery still no LED lights or power on. Where do yo u get the schematics for these? Where would you suggest looking for the failure? thanks

[@fixapplenow]

We buy them.

[@Tim-Shows]

What Power Supply did you use in this video? I see others use a Voltage Injector. Can a regular Bench Power Supply work for this purpose?

[@impactodelsurenterprise2440]

What method can you use for checking broken traces, open faults, etc that does not generate heat?

[@johnnyappiah6228]

How can I get some to buy

[@themobilelab4663]

Which flir is that ?1gen 2 gen or 3 gen?

[@B.E.H.]

I'd like to know too.

[@tripleh9985]

Great vid . Any idea why I have a totally black screen ? Lcd connected but can only light up three out of four leds ? It chimes ,fans blow , optic makes its sound ? But no images and black screen ???

[@imbeesh2150]

same problem capacitor are shorting in case of mine

[@GabzMonti25]

Awesome! great video, thanks for all the great info! great artwork 15:48 :)

[@fixapplenow]

GabzMonti25 thank you:)

[@lynyx77]

Very instructive video, do you detect other bad components with this methods?

[@fixapplenow]

You can only detect short with this method. Yes, most active or passive components will warm up when you run current through them. Sometimes CPU is hard to get warm. You need a lot of current

[@ramiroidarragalenis1241]

TENGO UN FLIR ONE, Y POR TODO LOS MEDIOS HE INTENTADO BAJAR EL SOFTWARE Y CONECTO EL DISPOSITIVO SE QUEDA LEYENDO. ANTERIORMENTE FUNCIONABA. SOLO QUE EL IPHON ANTERIOR SUFRIÓ UN DAÑO Y TOCO UTILIZAR UNO 5/S qué PUEDO HACER

[@fixapplenow]

Solo se me ocurre que llame al soporte tecnico del fabricante del FLIR

[@Kerug78]

whre to buy thermal imager ? thx

[@fixapplenow]

I bought this one at the Apple store back in the day. But I’m sure those are available on amazon and eBay. Thank you

[@TechnologyKingsdom]

Flir One (same one used in this video) is a great thermal camera. I manged to pick one up at my local Micro Center opened box for $70 bucks.

[@Kerug78]

sure 70 usd sir

[@twistedsocal]

@@Kerug78 they are usually 300

Genial

[@rectify2003]

You can make the video short by not yapping so much and getting to the point. Sheesh this was painful to watch

[@michellenewman20]

Flir thermal cameras suck big time, resolution is too low, there is no support, there is no parts for it nor are there any repairers in Australia, well there is one 1,000 km away in Melbourne and they charge a flat rate to look at it of $250, may be more if it needs to be sent to USA. Needless to say i will never buy another Flir camera ever again. Warranty runs out, $600 camera dies. As for Seek, it's just as bad not worth the money so don't get fulled by repairers on here that are praising the camera's, they are getting paid to advertise it.

[@impactodelsurenterprise2440]

If these so called made in USA thermal imagers are no good on quality and after sales service, are we better off with chinese imagers?

[@Z3NITH_]

Michelle Newman That's just straight up wrong. I have had no issues with my seek and it is a very high quality sensor for the price. You seem to be the only person trashing on these two companies, when all the other brands are cheap Chinese pieces of shit. The technology is inherently expensive because it is an even broader area of study then even visible cameras.
