Pray. Maybe the console fixes itself! Now that is gold

[@mentalmininguk]

Next question What is prayer, and how do you do it 😂🤣

Made me laugh. Scrolled down to comment and see that you beat me to it.

lmao in life sometimes things can get fixed it self haha

[@billg7813]

After you do your micro-soldering workshop, you might want to do a prayer workshop

[@miketeeveedub5779]

"What advice can I give? Pray." 🤣Best response ever! Covers many issues unrelated to electronics as well!

[@user-sk6dh1kf2x]

I just shut up and watch NF, now learning to repair on my own. Recently fixed a Sega Genesis and recapped my Nomad. Thank you NF for sharing all his knowledge. 👌

[@TweakTips]

Nice fix. As you say, this is very common fault with the PS5 consoles. Architecture is slightly improved on the newer revision motherboards, but I still see this issue often.

[@user-eh4kh3ye5o]

He ran out of the capacitors from thay donor board 😂

[@fsociety.dat101]

Can you thank Big Boss for me? I saw his multimeter attached to the stand with rubber bands, so it inspired me to repurpose my tablet holder to do the same 👍🏻.

[@user-eh4kh3ye5o]

You're right so many causes. My PS5 Blue Light of Death was caused by cpu overheating which caused its pins to move out place. I got it fixed long ago

[@gavin8tor]

Always a pleasure to complete a task with minimal effort. ❤❤❤ ~Hoping to start your training soon. 👍

[@iNireus]

What it tells me is “fix blues light ps5 death, Northridge ps5 capacitors available on the shop” advert coming soon😂

[@streamrsm1009]

I just love watching your videos. It is really great that you are helping others by teaching a class to educate others. The way you explain why you can't answer a simple question is great. Keep it up.

[@Sapien356]

Great fix big boss.

[@outfield1988]

Love your answer Alex.

[@aliaaa732]

I See your videos for three years Thanks Alex I Like you

[@Anthony-bz1vt]

so glad I discovered you. another great informative video. thank you for all you do!!!

[@jasoncarling1942]

I would very much enjoy seeing how Big Boss does his work on some devices.

[@jameysummers1577]

I love it! Respect for the elders! "The boss of all bosses".

[@tomgonzales9279]

always very professional repair

[@hfatboydth4715]

Oh Lord who art in Heaven. Pls fix my PS5 Blue Light of Death. 😂 I love your dry humor Alex😂

[@AmmarH413]

People think its humor , others think its bad attitude . People get amused , others get annoyed

[@toonnut1]

"Pray" very helpful

[@krasi4a]

🤣😂😅

[@TheMadFlasher]

Alex over here getting three birds stoned at once. Happy customer, happy commenter, and happy KZbin content.

[@reactions_with_will]

In other words, Alex spent years and years asking these questions and learning. It's not as simple as watching a few videos and asking a few questions. That's not gonna get you very far, and then skill comes into play, even if you know what components are faulty, that doesn't mean you are able to fix it. Soldering is a very complex thing to do. I've been watching his videos for a very long time, and have only had a small amount of success soldering, but you just have to keep learning and developing skill.

[@reactions_with_will]

Great video Alex, and I also love how you teach life lessons sometimes.

[@melissaash5264]

Thank you Alex!

[@fsociety.dat101]

Wow. $95 bench fee. I once had a guy that wanted me to repair his xbox one. It required board work and could have been the hdmi port itself, or the retimer chip. I told him that if he wanted it doing, it would be £80 (diagnostic included.) and he was like "£80!? But it only costs £120 for the console." I was like "It doesn't matter what device it is, it's the time, the knowledge and the parts used."

[@onuroskay8613]

What the customer pay you If device itself cost be 5K or 15K? Same amount of money. So, your time and effort can not be compared with the device’s cost.

[@AmmarH413]

I was gonna say , wow thats steep , how much for the fix then ?

[@YasirKhan-uy3jn]

I couldn't believe my ears, so I had to rewind to make sure I heard it right 😅.

[@tommajor1013]

knowledge isn't free and some guys want a fully baked cake but don't know how to make it and just want to eat it

[@doniherald7745]

no wonder your video quality is good, that is a big light diffuser

[@filips7158]

Alex, next time I need a tip, I'll ask you to kindly response me. You seem to be a responsible person.

[@b8xlegend124]

I have seen alot of your videos but i have never saw u repair a ps4 remote controller

[@x1ic1x]

Thank you for the knowledge Alex 🙏 it’s definitely gonna help me if I ever come into this problem

[@josephperez2249]

great teaching as always!

[@kurma_grafika]

very smart analyzed

[@jameysummers1577]

Microsoldering and component level repair is the future of PC repair. Just having a shop and telling people to replace a motherboard isn't viable anymore. Fixing these boards costs a whole $1.30 to the business. Asking the customer to buy a new motherboard for $200 to $1000 depending on the device is lunacy.

[@icecold229]

Thank you for your expertise

[@Mojtaba_Shahbandari]

Nice man nice repair and finally nice workshop!

[@sklepgekon]

what chances are that a person who doesnt know how to ask right questions will be able to repair console by himself? more probable is he'll break it even further - and for that will blame you

[@miladcpu]

Thanks for sharing your skills, when you inject 1.5 volts, how many amperes is the current?

[@martinvaci7166]

Would you be consider also create a structured educational video training on the micro soldering ? And sell it as online detailed tutorial. Perhaps used the experiences and common errors you seen and found from your regular trainings ?

[@obvious7777]

Question: I've always had sort of an opposition to using electronic parts that have been used on prior electronic devices, due to the fact that all electronics have a finite amount of uses before they no longer work, so knowing this... Would it not be safe to say, that an electronic part that is removed from a donor device will never have the same longevity as a new electronic part?...inevitably, meaning that the repaired device has a good chance at returning for the same issue in a shorter time than using a new part?

[@AbcAbc-z5m]

9:58 Yes, Big Boss ❤❤❤

[@perryblanchard8353]

Hello I want to say that I enjoy you channel I have bought some of your products. the mini tweezers are God sent. I also want to ask does Big Boss talk alot or very little?

[@blackdotkiller1]

Quick Question: What is the meaning of life 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@user-dp1xk7hr8b]

That will be a 95$ for the repair attempt fee,

[@tron45]

To be better than factory 😂

[@stillraven9415]

Chocolate!

[@OKBUDDY21]

Have a question, for those small capacitors can you buy them online to replace instead of buying another donor board just to get those small pieces? I want to learn, and if so, where can we buy them, or search on google specifically for.

[@haldakwolf8464]

I second this question haha

[@awaitingthetrumpetcall4529]

Alex doesn't need to do this because he will never run out of donor boards but if I had only one donor board I would mark the value of those caps on the motherboard so I would know which cap to take from my supply.

[@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

You can purchase a case of different typres from Alex

[@itrema]

the issue here is to determine the value of capacitor, without schematics it is impossible to identify the cap

[@MrBjarnevik]

We would love to have the values of the replaced components i videos 🥰 Thank you for the work you do!

[@AbcAbc-z5m]

Pray 🙏

[@bob_mosavo]

Yeah, the best you can do is point folks like that to learn somewhere else because they will never believe that they should really give up and have someone else perform the work.

[@rfr653]

Good job mate 👏

[@chrisfeaka4250]

That is one of the easier blod Causes. There are many other faults that can also cause it, as the master has indicated

[@cyrilwoolf8848]

Just watching your KZbin where your Mike found I just wondered and you thought about putting your own low battery buzzer in yourself

[@Glucklichmann]

Hello Dear NorthridgeFix, I do not think we can register your workshop cause of being far away, but if you can make tutorials of your wokshop and we may watch them on a different paid online platform . And I will be appreciative. Regards. Thanks.

[@gaetanoloffredo8369]

molto bene,godo nel vedere i tuoi video,continua così.

Great ✌️

[@Paberu85]

1:52 there is, the one that one people like (manufacturers), and other ones - not so much (consumers)

[@pcclean6270]

excelente trabajo👌

[@Chewligan1]

Alex needs a lot of patience in his business. I would fail.

[@haldakwolf8464]

I have a question, I have a BLOD on an EDM-030 board. I have done all the research and purchased all the tools to do so. My question is, what are the normal voltages of the various capicitors around the board? I ask because, instead of getting a donor board, I would order only the damaged component/components once I have located the fault. Thank you.

[@lior2k]

u the most dude i trust on the network which termal pads or termal paste can u recomanded? thqt have best performance and last longer and safer to apply

[@ttkenvk9099]

nice fix, as always, but what is the reason those caps go bad ? is it heat or bad quality or something else ?

[@petersmith5199]

Here to ask the same question if anyone knows? TIA.

[@j.m.5995]

More than likely the consoles are placed in an enclosed space inside an entertainment center and become heat soaked after lengthy run times and the weakest link in the chain breaks

[@wiggstheking5419]

hello from australia can you do a video on a gigabyte rx6600xt eagle no display output please.. i have one and would like to know how to test it for a short on the test ponits. the 12v rail seems to be fine as i have tested the pcie plug with gpu on but i get no display output. thank you for the awesome details in all your videos. you are one top bloke

[@gaston8269]

Can't you buy another one? You live in Australia.

[@ranjitmandal1612]

Great fix 😃

[@MrMojolinux]

Alex, In your opinion is it bad manufacturer design that causes blown capacitors in the same region on multitude of similar boards, or could there be another explanation like user error or abuse?

[@KiparisDG]

Also UV light can cure console by itself, simply make sure you exposed the board and yourself by UV light and there is the second method if praying didn't work 😀

[@saltcityrepairs5121]

My question Alex is, How to be you?? 😅👍

[@rongray8934]

Practice.

[@winlose3073]

That was quick repair, but very nice joke at the beginning

[@kulibo1]

There is no console or laptop, reading 3 ihlas and 1 Fatiha can't fix. 😂

[@indecline06]

Big boss 🫡

[@worroSfOretsevraH]

Ok, I let you know what I'm thinking: open and fix the other console in the same videoooo!

[@edekoka6267]

Please describe what prayer should be said for the console to repair itself.You probably know more.But one that is compatible with several consoles is enough.

[@basgro]

Could the guy entering the shop during the video, the same person who left the comment?

[@joshuasox]

Lol I died at pray the console will fix itself 😂😂😂😂

[@cordyceps4608]

Research i do always

[@SANKSANK1000]

Maybe next you can upload a video about PS5 with blue light of dead but no short and all fuses is good..

[@ejeckk]

How many times a week does someone in the family make you smile?

[@xtreme_alza]

"i have a lot of donor board of ps5" how do you have so many donor board? did you buy it somewhere?

[@ExtremeMusicSpace]

why are capacitors so weak these days, I see many of the same defects broken capacitors. my Dell XPS 702x laptop is 12 years old and I use it every day luckily no broken capacitors or blue light of dead!

[@gabest4]

More caps, more failure points. Sony smart.

[@shahedahmed9737]

Boss of all boss!!😂❤

[@NetbeastGaming]

I mean either learn or leave it to the professionals

[@DZ-bo8hq]

8:01 It tells me if I have a Ps5 with a blue light of death I should change those caps and there is a decent chance it will fix it

[@mikeg6niner]

Is there gonna be a workshop to be boss of all bosses?

[@graveborne8724]

So how do i do it?

[@rodhester2166]

Would the ps5 work fine with only 3 caps? might be a good question

[@denikec]

atleast now the customer can buy a new ps5 pro for 800€ plus tax, bluray drive, and plastic stand 😂

[@ranjitmandal1612]

😂

[@thischicksmobilerepair2165]

The easiest PS5 to fix is the ones with no power, no lights, and no beeps.

[@SajidSanwari]

Could a PS3 (CECH-2008A) too have a similar problem? I used my PS3 after 6-7years.. it started fine & then suddenly died. Powering on; RED light, turning into GREEN.. then YELLOW for a fraction of second & then blinking RED light with 3 beeps. I am from India & follow your channel regularly. Id have sent the PS3 to you if i was in US. Any suggestions, that could be helpful, as out here nobody wants to fix it..

[@retroradar_de]

Probably the NEC Tokin capacitors that failed in your console.

[@ranjitmandal1612]

😮

[@perez9619]

​@@retroradar_de no way to tell without reading the syscon codes. Blindly replacing NEC Tokins is wasted effort if not needed. Yes there are times those are the fault but most YLOD is caused by cracked solder balls or underfill.

[@derrezz5519]

It light blue😅

[@TweakTips]

The blue light simply indicates the boot stage of the PS5. From what the blue light does (short light, long light etc) will help to diagnose a possible fault with the PS5

It’s same the thing as someone bugging a weed grower every little thing about hydroponics, time, lighting, seeds, etc. questions on questions. As an electronic technician and someone who’s done hydroponics, it’s annoying. Go do your own research first.
