MacBook A2442 no power, logic board repair - wow

[@HummyGG]

the choice for replacement capacitor made me chuckle xD

[@Dohcom1]

Wow, Perfectly calibrated cut, Lol!

[@davidlguerr]

Apple does not fix logic boards at Apple Stores. The £600 quote was for a board replacement (a refurbished one). They keep the broken one, send it to a partner in China to be repaired and then sold again to another customer.

[@465kuba]

If they sell motherboard for 600 than they shoul buy damage motherboard for x

[@davidlguerr]

@@465kuba You have 2 options: retail or exchange. £600 pounds is the exchange price, they keep your old motherboard. If you want to keep it, you pay probably around £1000. That's how Apple works.

[@yokesreddy5142]

Job well done Sorin. Another board saved from land fill.

[@stevejones4618]

They quoted £600 because no one really repairs anything - they just swap out parts. So something dead on the motherboard it's a new motherboard at whatever that costs. Most warranty work involves zero actual repairing (but Im sure you're aware of that ;-))

[@jaym5938]

I wish there were a lesson on what you're seeing/evaluating with shorted tracks within the board. I couldn't tell at all what you were seeing nor what was connected to what.

[@hmartinlb]

I can't believe comments calling Sorin dodgy made him actually replace capacitors (even if his heart isn't in it).

[@yan7382]

16:30 LOL I was blowing air on my screen to help you 😚😚😚

[@wisher21uk]

Love watching the master Sorin 😊

[@2368rafa]

Hello Sorin, as always another excellent and complex work, with that burned track.

[@Edge-71]

Sorin please don’t take this the wrong way, but u make me laugh so much, when u remove the chip and short still there, I’m laughing because I know ..bless u man 🙏

Next video: how to create a volume controller for the multimeter's beeper :p

[@dirzzleme01]

Just use hot glue on the speaker. I modified my meter, hot air station and soldering station. You can still hear the the beeping, but it is way more tolerable.

[@SidneyCritic]

Yeah I've been complaining for a while because it's painful with my hyperacusis, ie, can't get to the volume fast enough. Tape over the hole usually fixes it.

[@laboratorioassembler]

@@dirzzleme01 talking about sorin's beeper... is killing mi smartphone speaker :) on mine i have placed some tape.

Nice job Sorin , you did excellent job on board .you get a proper calibrated pizza 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Where is the behind the scenes part with the motherboard disassembly/reassembly? 😂

[@electronicsrepairschool]

nothing to edit there, only beep beep beep :)))))))

[@icommandoi145]

no capacitor, no short! That's the best phantom calibrated capacitor :D

[@Trustsimo07]

I think the capacitor was a polarized capacitor ' tantalum '

I saw thumbnail, and was hoping for flames. How disappointing 😅

[@ronlevin2339]

Thats what they say about solder on over heated hot metal its called crystallized. Wont come apart.

[@Timpano_Francesco_Repairs]

Hi Sorin, thank for this lessons and Happy customer that even with burn layer you save the laptop..y the Multimeter beep Is to high let have video for a volume controller how said laboratorioassembler 😂 bye Francesco Timpano from Florence Italy

[@Swenser]

Being a bit more gentle with the current inject will help pin point the heat location I guess.

[@hansregli8678]

Spoiler alert. Cap replacement: "Size matters" (That's what *she* said). Your replacement cap looks definitively way too small. The size is always in relation to the Farads and to the voltage. You could have measured one of the others beside the exploded first to find out the Farads.

[@loverboykimi]

Better than factory.

[@BassemInJapan]

northridgefix hhhhh

[@miajonekem]

I love some surgery on motherboards. "naaah, we don't need this track!" Sorin always making proper calibrated motherboards.

[@bobsonsitecomputerrepair4305]

Sorin, Apple store doesn't repair their logic boards. Price would be to replace entire logic board.

[@andrejmichalek4867]

Almost every logicboard repair video on the A2442 MacBook Pro refers to this circuit of the board and almost always several layers of the board are damaged / burned in this exact area. This has to be some mistake in the board design by Apple.

[@itnaklipse1669]

"mistake" :D

[@maklogetrich2378]

it's a feature, by Apple 😂

[@ddannyable]

@@maklogetrich2378 costs only 599

[@anatolyvilanculos6513]

there is something fun on Sorin videos he do not like to take out the board 🤣🤣🤣 lol, and whe I'm watching his videos then he find the short and says do you think is in other side of the board?? probable not.! but anyway i like your videos they always trigger a new thinking tricks and that's is awesome.🤝🤝

[@JordynBaby63]

Propper calibrated BBQ! lol

[@ctecrwp]

I could see at first sight of the thermal cam the heat signature is not from ic.

[@kevinhalili6399]

Hey sorin! Why don't we stick that meter somewhere since it uses USB cable and put a camera just like the old days

[@MR308W]

Nice job. As far as i know apple only change the complete part, so they charge for a complete new motherboard. It is not really a repair but mor of a change 😞

[@HalifaxComputersRepair]

that tiny cap next the biggest one lol

[@safn1949]

I ended up with an i5 iMac in a deal a few years back, bad hard drive and Apple wanted several hundred dollars to fix it, I had an SSD in it in less than an hour, and my business partner used it after that.

[@michelleanderson985]

Watch north ridge fix he did a few of those repairs but you did an awesome job but repairing a burned layer I’m just wondering what caused the cap to blow it showed the effect but what is the cause could it have been a flaw in the design? Anyway you have a lot of skill

[@NnowhaHomaluv-vw9qc]

Apple asked for 600£?!!!...... Then you should charge for 1200£ just for taking the motherboard out No I'm serious i hate Apple so much HOWEVER your work is magnificent Sir GOD BLESS YOU, i always wait for your videos to be uploaded everyday and thank you for all of that work YOU TAUGHT US WELL THANKS A LOT (NO CAPACITOR NO SHORTED CAPACITOR ;)

[@Grevan-Recuperacao-de-Dados]

At 26:36 the pad is connected with the other capacitor, ok, but it is taking current, so doesn't that mean there is still a short on that line?

[@frankmormando3917]

Is it that slow,....3 macbooks in a row 😂

[@piffdaddy420]

idk if that is correct because 100 watt for mbp? normally it is 60.... maybe that is the original cause of the fault something causing too much power to push through?

Nice repair...as usuall.

[@theprogrammerrolandmc3039]

I think the repair from Macintosh before yourself was going to replace the whole mother board that's why it was so expensive.

I think if the old one was a tantalum, you better replace trough a tantalum too and not ceramic.

the problem is a shorted track, not the caps itself but yeah, replace the same one is better

[@markodzo]

@@Tribes11 Depends'', software/hardware?,,,, The perception of whether Apple products are superior to other tech products is subjective and varies from person to person. Apple products are known for their sleek design, user-friendly interface, and seamless integration across devices. However, the perception of superiority can also be influenced by marketing, brand loyalty, and personal preferences. It's important to consider individual needs and preferences when evaluating the superiority of tech products.

May God bless you, our teacher. By God, I have a problem with the Toshiba Satellite Pro model R50-B-15J laptop. The problem is that it starts, writes Toshiba, and turns off. I emptied the charge, removed the battery, and put it back in. The same problem remains. I tried to charge the BIOS and restart it. It became a black screen. I restored the old BIOS. Same problem, replaced. I used the flash drive, 32q32, and I charged the old BIOS with it. The same problem remains. Can you help? Thank you.
