Advice for anyone cleaning up urine: try to use a UV light! You'll be able to tell what's urine and what's normal dust by the pattern and shape.

[@aldenkaiser248]

Watching this video after having seen your initial console repair videos is awesome. You built some crazy skills and confidence doing this man big ups!!!

[@Tronicsfix]

Thanks! Glad you're enjoying these

[@RavenWolfRetroTech]

Oh God, I feel for you! I was a copier/printer tech for many years and we would occasionally get a printer in that a cat peed in. They liked the heat from the fuser and, when startled, would pee in the printer, on the hot fuser. We found that cleaning the parts in an ultrasonic cleaner with a strong Simple Green solution was about all that would cut the stench.

[@Tronicsfix]

So gross!

[@aoneblood]

I love the satisfaction you get when you repair your items. It's such a great feeling.

[@ryanb509]

"Use your toothbrush at all sorts of different angles" He sounds just like my dentist.....

[@BlueKnight87]

I have 2 cats of my own Steve, and I would be pretty annoyed at them if they peed on my stuff. Really brave of you to open your laptop up and clean it. Plus, for once you had to fix your own tech!

[@crankyknuckles1849]

Cat's like: "We'll get it next time!"

[@austintse5719]

Cat "that'll teach you to stare at the screen all day instead of paying me attention" :)

[@Tronicsfix]

Ha, ha..that sounds like something they would think!

[@hdezn26]

@@Tronicsfix Yup. Or lay on the keyboard while you try to type. ( like one is doing now.) Paws too large to type , fixed error.

[@jinxsdgtl]

Cat was thinking "If its not broken, ill Pee on it till it is"

[@Tronicsfix]

Now that's funny!

[@hdezn26]

Funny that.... thats how one of my old desktops died... Didn't find out untill it wouldn't boot one day as it was on the floor. Taking it apart was *no fun*... It stank bad. Back then I knew very little about repairing anything so it just got chucked to the nearist scrap bin.

[@cinnabuns9469]

[@slicertm668]

cat" "If it ain't broke, I'll pee on it 'till it is" Steve: Ew, but still, let's make a vid about it! 😅😅😅

[@michaelball7680]

Sees the ‘Warranty void if removed’ sticker. “LOL… I am the warranty here!” That needs to go on a t-shirt.

[@glw888]

I used to have the same laptop. Shocked you had to remove all those screws on the bottom case. Mine all just unscrewed themselves in the first 6 months I owned it.

[@RipCityBassWorks]

"I'm going to come in with some IPA and a toothbrush" Instructions unclear, now the laptop is covered in beer.

[@jotape15]

10:40 always remember to test your trackpad, keyboard and USB Ports. It is a pain in the ass to dismount the whole computer again just for not double checking if all the connectors are plugged in

[@glass.hammer]

You’re a stronger person than I am. Cat urine is so nauseatingly rank that I would have power washed that laptop with 99.9% IPA before even opening it.

[@KOHLKANE]

Can't wait to have my own shop and start up!:) I plan on doing everything from cell phones, gaming consoles, laptops, and PC custom builds! Hell, pretty much anything with a motherboard but definitely the PC builds! I enjoy watching your vids and appreciate your content.

[@Iamglitterxoxo]

I am in college online and my laptop screen stopped working, your videos gave me the courage to try and fix it myself and saved me from having to take a loan out to buy a new one. THANK YOU

[@Andy_Rose90]

"Cat pee" is a weird brand name for a gaming laptop.

[@woogaloo]

Came here for the perfect amount of thermal paste and I was not disappointed! Thankfully no cats were harmed in the making of this video...only laptops.

Well someone did something to PISS off the Cat Overlords.

[@ZonicMirage]

A cat peed into one of my game consoles once. Somehow missed ALL of the vital bits, so it never stopped working. The plastic was just super musty and gross. I ended up getting another one to play on (couldn't sell the other for obvious reasons). A few years later, I was able to open and clean it out. Looked and smelled like new and works to this day. I absolutely lucked out.

[@sebazztard2]

I've been watching your vids for a LONG time... I never get tired of the thermal paste jokes, idk why but its great. I love your vids. Thank you.

I honestly wasn't expecting this as a video.

[@Tronicsfix]

I wasn't expecting to make it but when it happened I figured I might as well!

[@LucaBlightOfHighland]

I read the title three times before realizing that "cat pee" wasn't the name of some absurd computer manufacturer.

[@Tronicsfix]

LOL

[@hdezn26]

Or a knock off of another brand.

[@robert_roland63]

Cats can be vicious little mongrels especially when they are mad and pee wherever they can just to make you mad. Thankfully that laptop was not a victim of the cat’s fury.

[@Tronicsfix]

These are pretty good cats overall, but they have their moments!

[@robert_roland63]

@@Tronicsfix I don’t doubt that. I felt that way about our cats when we had two at one time until the female cat got mad and relieved herself in our dog’s toy basket. 🤦‍♂️

[@rorymcgraw9823]

Don't know if this has been mentioned but you might need to get a blacklight and a carbon based cleaner for cat pee. Other chemicals usually don't always work. The blacklight will show hidden residue in the left in the pee that makes it continue to stink.

[@xiphumbra]

Getting Judge Dredd vibes with that "I am the warranty" line.

[@supermick83]

I got a call to a train station with report stating that the charger for the bag tugger wasn't working. When I arrived the operator showed me the charger which was 3 phase 400v and had a seriously bad smell of urine. Upon further inspection I found the control board with trace lines where pish had shorted it out. It turns out that homeless guys were sneaking into that garage at night to sleep and didn't realise how lucky they were not to have their flutes turn black in an instant🤣 Anyway great video as always a true master at your craft

[@shanez1215]

You with gloves on with the iFixit kit reminded me of Dexter and his tools lol. Warning about the LX/UX 501: the hinge mounts are HORRIBLE, being just machine screw mounts glued into plastic bits in the lid. If those break you have to replace the whole damn lid.

[@paablopalacioo]

great! you teach the world that it is worth the shot and try to fix things instead of buying new stuff. Quite wise message my friend.

Ok if you had told me that I would be watching a guy that says "if it ain't broke I will fix it till it is" scraping dried cat pee out of his laptop for entertainment on a Saturday morning a year ago, I would have told you that you are indubitably insane, yet here we are. As per the usual Steve thank you for the cat pee ride along and the great content you share... cough, cough... :)

[@robertzieg3893]

LOL. A few years ago my dog decided the intake fan on my HAF case was his toilet while I was away for a few months, It was so McNasty took like 2 days to get everything clean and smelling good again. Vinegar is really good at getting rid of pee smell, cat or dog.

[@thedub007]

When exactly did laptops stop using external batteries you could just pop off and replace as needed? I hate the “form over function” of having the battery inside, and that’s how pretty much all modern laptops are.

[@ApofKol]

Yeah, I feel the same, but this battery isn't even that hard to replace so it could be worse I guess...

[@awilliams1701]

Probably around the time crapple introduced the crapBook air. But as much as I hate crapple, I do kind of love the form factor especially the 2in1 form factor (which apple has never made LMAO). It's the only way to get it that small though. It's not hard to replace the battery, but it does require work unlike older laptops. My old laptop which was this form factor ended up with a shattered power socket thanks to my dogs constantly tripping over the cord. I managed to replace it. And it wasn't hard despite how compact it was. Also could have replaced the battery if I wanted. Fun fact though. The replacement power connector I got had a cable that was twice the thickness of the original. As a result there was a slight bulge in the final assembly that I couldn't fix no matter how hard I tried. As a result the laptop had a slight external bulge on just one side.....where that power connector goes.

[@truthhurts3524]

Showing how much of a novice I am, I heard IPA and thought beer was going to be used. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤣

[@scottvogel8477]

Wasn't expecting this as a video, but as someone who has cats. This will be useful knowledge to have.

I spent a decade in TV & Video repair and I feel your pain. Cat Pee in top loading VCR's -- check Pet rabbit chewed through TV power cable, arguably the toughest fix of my career trying to find a matching replacement before customers kids got home. Toy cars, Letters to Santa Claus and second cassette jammed inside front loading VCR's (the force required to perform that last trick boggles the mind) Old tube TV from a fast food place... I won't say how bad that was, folk in the comments might be eating. ...it didn't get any better when computers and compact discs came along lol
