Another great repair! Pattern recognition and associating common issues with specific components is probably the most efficient way to repair. Keep up the great work 👍

[@TTM1984]

🔴 First of all I wanted to say that I really like the work you do, it's an inspiration for me. Professional, I said already? Very professional and most importantly very reliable! ❓I have one question for you : Are you making deliveries to Israel?

What kind of multimeter was that, That short beep if there is no short on diode mode would definitely save some time

[@Qogicx]

How to know if there's a short if the multimeter doesn't beep on diode mode? Which are the values that says that there is a short? Btw love your videos keep it up👍💪

How are you testing for a short circuit? Where are you putting the second measuring tip?

please combine them all in one video, light editing no need to make it short similar repair compilation on other channels get +200k views yesterday you had me hating that company that stole your content because it could have been a repair video instead of a complaint video Good job Habibi alex

[@NorthridgeFix]

You have to take the good with the bad. You can't expect to just take and don't give back. That would be selfish of u. No need to hate when I ask viewers to do something, in that case report elekworld for stealing our videos.

very good job i really enjoyed .what is this meter model number please . i wanna buy this white meter.

[@brightmedia385]

Hi bro and hi everyone! (apologies for off topic) My Pc has some mysterious issue that I can't figure out no matter what, it turns on and off in a matter of 1 seconds repeatedly. I've read lot of online materials and also KZbin, basically have tried everything in my view, as: - replaced Psu with new one - removed all components like ram, gpu, disconnected hard drives etc and reconnect cables carefully done and fit everything. But yet this power cycle won't go away! Pc specs: -Motherboard Asus maximus vii ranger Intel Z97 chipset -Cpu i7-4770s -Gpu Asus gtx 1050ti -12GB ram hyperx -120GB ssd and 500GB hdd The only way that managed to boot normally was when I removed cmos battery and let pc disconnected from Psu and cmos for about 1hr,after that I place battery and Psu and pc will turn on normally, this method will last for 2-3 days, as it happens again when I turn pc on the same issue that I had will be manifested (after 2-3 days), I call this mistery bcoz if it was motherboard dead it would not boot up after what I did (mentioned above) all components works normal when I'm on windows, if someone could help me I appreciate it a lot, its been 1 month and everyday I wakeup I'm afraid the pc won't turn on as today, thank u again I hope someone has the idea!

[@torridlight372]

So to check for those shorts, what setting is your meter on?

[@philstuart-douek7438]

quick question please - why did you not use flux to take off the old chip?

[@rcook0001]

Always with a smile. Would love to see a long video with all the switches . Well I watch all the videos so yeah same same

[@gartmorn]

Your dad is real 'old school' where they were taught to take a pride in their service. I see that you take after him in that respect. Well done dad!

[@Mrgasmany]

Just another inspirational video great seeing ya working makes me going forward every time

[@jerryhatfield84]

If your battery in your switch is completely defective will the switch system still try to charge it? My switch charged up to 23% stopped now it's completely depleted and will not turn on. Just wondering if it could be still a battery or the motherboard charging system. I'm hoping it's just a battery. I have a replacement battery coming today just wondering if I'm wasting my time because I don't see the charging lightning bolt when it's plugged in. FYI I tried all the tricks holding the button in, resetting the power pack and waiting more than 8 hours to see if it would charge. No luck!

[@Musti1986]

I have a fuse right above the usb c port that does not give continuity, do have these in your shop? Or can i just use a jumper wire

[@RayRae559]

Respect to your dad! I deliver anywhere from 80-200 packages a day!

[@oneandonlytyler1]

i guess dont buy a switch for xmas guys,very expensive for what they are,i spammed elkesworld s accounts saying they were crooks aswell

[@donnierobertson3088]

Great job and video like always

[@eddiegarza6122]

I have a switch with no Sound coming from speakers but you can hear through headphones. I took apart and i did find some stick substance on the inside where the right side joycon is but did not look like it reached the board. Everything works fine but the sound. Any Idea? could it be a resistor , should i just test it all?

[@dkaytan]

Shout out to your family. Keep up the good work.

[@ssuggu7]

Super video sir thkyou information important video

[@wandihaura3999]

Love u dad.....

[@Gixxer-Mo]

Hold power & volume down or up for 5-15 seconds that should do the trick if its not turning on .

[@mahmoudnadi1992]

Do you replace the joysticks on the switch joycons too? I cannot find a supplier where 90% of the order is defective. Anyone else has that issue?

[@ichamachtir7609]

Why do not stay on continuity mode to check capacitor? What's the advantage to switch in diode mode?

[@NorthridgeFix]

It's ok to use continuity to test for a short. Diode mode measures voltage drop between 2 points and usually much faster then resistance mode. Diode mode will give you good idea of how voltage is behaving measuring from Ground to point B and you can compare measurements between 2 board to find faults.

[@patrickshawmurphy]

How come u use diode mode with red probe to ground? Thankyou i am learning a good amount from your style of repair.

[@stefanlechner]

Nice job, quick, accurate, precise and with much love to electronics. Well, you have the perfect dad, i think you inherited all of his charakteristics from a hard working person. I am sure his slogan is „what‘s done, is done“ 👌 you have the perfect team in your company, big boss, your dad, your new employee and of course your wife (i think) ...and your mum, that always gonna keep an eye about your health and the other one if you turn on your fume-extractor.

Hello I got a question

[@nickabbott4411]

Very good work and you make it look too easy! I was worried slightly when you knocked the capacitor while aligning the chip but it was only a slight touch. I'd panic and go to move it back while knocking the rest off and not getting the chip straight either!!
