Another Great Repair and Video! I didn't even know there was copper tape, until your videos. The ultrasonic toothbrush is an Excellent idea as well. Thank You. 😀

Thank you! Copper tape has turned out to be very useful! I can't take credit for the UC Toothbrush idea, that was a recommendation of @TheArtofRepair !

Now that is what I call a UV lamp. I have seen some use solder wick to anchor down ground terminals
@MicroMageRepair Жыл бұрын
Yes it is, I have found I get impatient with the laser because it requires I hold it to cure, had issues with getting a thorough cure as a result, so I just place the big lamp and do something else for a bit. Have seen the solder wick method, and it is a great approach too. This is just the method I came up with prior to seeing that one and have just stuck with what I do.

its actually really easy to rip the connector off its poorly designed I've taken off those connectors from dozens of ps3s and ps4s and that's never happened to me. I barely tugged and it popped right off. I've used more force on nintendo switch connectors. Even as a Playstation fanboy I am saying that connector is poorly designed.

I've made a few adjustments to this technique that have helped. I've begun pretinning the pads before soldering them to the board. The ground pads in particular have increased in strength quite a bit.

hello I also have the same problem, the fan was torn off by a beginner, I wanted to resolder it but the problem is that there is a pin that I cannot solder because the track is completely unusable, where There are 3 pins, the one on the right can be soldered, the one in the middle too, it's the least complicated because it's ground but the one on the left I really can't. Is it possible to point to another location on the motherboard? thank you for helping me

I went to a shop to fix it and they were charging me 200 bucks,so I would like to know how much would you really charge for this
@MicroMageRepair3 ай бұрын
My situation is different and not really comparable. I don't have a shop's overhead. I also factor in shipping cost, wich is not insignificant, into my prices. Otherwise, I'd never get any mailed in. My overall cost with shipping comes in cheaper than $200 but you will have more hoops to jump through and a longer turn around due to shipping times. I do offer proof of my results right here in video form, so you don't have to wonder about how it will turn out. It just depends on your needs.

About how much is this repair?

I'd ask that you head over to micromage.repair and get in touch. Prefer not to quote in my public comments as prices are subject to change over time and people just discovering this video won't understand that.

Dude was going to charge me $80. So I asked one simple, innocent question: Why is it so expensive? A fair enough question, I think? I then said that IF and when I need his services that I'd like to just send the motherboard so as to significantly cut down on the shipping cost I'd have to pay. He messaged back, declining to work on my fan connector, LOL. Shit like that makes him seem suspect as hell and untrustworthy (in my opinion), so if I were you (or anyone else) I'd be cautious dealing with this dude. Imagine denying a potential customer service just because they asked a simple question. I genuinely wanted to know what it is about this procedure that makes it so costly and that's how I was treated.
