Unfortunately Sorin, most businesses nowadays are all centered around the time. I fixed a friend's £1000 Samsung TV in my own time by doing exactly what you did in this video. Stripped it down completely and cleaned the liquid damage. He was over the moon, but couldn't understand why the Samsung engineers returned it as unfixable. I told him that it simply didn't make sense for them to spend hours on a job that they couldn't guarantee a quick fix. That's why so much equipment gets thrown away. 😢

I repaired Switched PC Power supply, and we had 6 minutes per job, so open it and do some measurements, Swap 6 or 12 components test it, and then on to the next one, If we thought it would take longer, we put it in the junk pile. And when it got slow we picked a couple from the junk pile and spent a long time investigating the fault to learn something new.

I was also lucky and managed to fix the laptop just by "cleaning". In my case, however, the laptop was kept in a humid environment for a long time, so the motherboard was heavily oxidized. I sprayed the entire motherboard with contact cleaner and scrubbed with a toothbrush. After cleaning the laptop started working 😁

If you are going to use water, you should use distilled water. Using fizzy water it will leave alot of minerals on board after drying, which can cause corrosion on the long run.

Ideea of having different screw for battery is a poka-yoke system for the worker on the factory not to switch the screw type on production line and for the service not to put in wrong places the screw

Do you mean they only allow certain factory workers access to particular screwdrivers so they only can work on particular parts of the laptop?

@@RJMCafe no, is a way of not mess with the wrong screw in the wrong place... If the hole of the screw is different (can be with a different pitch) on the motherboard place from the battery place than you need a poka-yoke system for the worker and this is a way...

I also believe that HP is messing with the screws. On an EliteBook they mark the screws as M2.5 and you would think they are M2.5, but they are M2.4. A normal metric 2.5 mm will not fit, it is too large. There are no metric 2.4 mm, but HP use them.

I didn't know any better, so I tossed it out. If I had that laptop today, I'd open it up and clean it and see what could be done.

2 pence from me: 1. Why not invest in a ultrasonic cleaner? I use it and is great. 2. Why not charge a repair attempt fee as I do? I charge from £10-30+ parts if I need to on top of that. I work from home and we've got +150 five-star rated reviews. I've got 2 technicians and 2 apprentices, so, repair attempt fee won't kill the traffic of customers ;).

When I lived in silicon valley I rented apartment from this guy who worked at HP. I worked for a different company. The guy was a nut. We had to take the rent to his house. At specific time and day. It had to be in a white envelope with his name on it. You had to line up against the wall so you couldn't see inside his windows. You only had one minute for the delivery. Really crazy stuff.

HP has always used Torx screws in its devices, even in PCs and servers. I've always wondered why. but in PCs and servers, the torx screws have a slot to be removed even with a simple slotted screwdriver

It comes down to not wanting to charge the customer a bunch of money to look at a laptop that can't be fixed, I never did board repair as it was cheaper to buy a used motherboard at that time (2014-17) and I was just happy to get my bills paid. My ovehead was almost nothing as I worked from home so one of the last jobs I did was a laptop with a bad motherboard, I told the owner it wasn't worth fixing as it was a cheap, older laptop. She asked me what she owed me and I said nothing, I spent 5 minutes and couldn't fix it. The other was an overheating laptop with a dead bios battery, told him $70 to tear it down, clean,repaste, and replace the bios battery that was not accessible . He said that was outrageous, I told him ok, whatever. People.
