Hi, this revisit video shows me attempting to fix a Eufy RoboVac 30C robotic vacuum cleaner with a faulty brush that keeps on spinning, even when charging. This model had suffered from liquid damage previously.
Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things.
I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series.
Many thanks, Vince.

MOSFETs typically fail with a short source to drain. which means that it appears fully on all the time. That would explain why the brush rotated all the time when switched on.

That's what i thought from the beginning (mind you i'm no expert at all)... in simple terms.. they act as sort of a electronic switch...power the gate and it switches/connects the source to the drain, no? A short in the mosfet would cause it to be always on, hence the spinning motor..... and to be fair... this has been the case for a long time since the brush hits the contact of the base when charging in the dock and the brush was bent more then the other brush....a bit of a design fault on the device.... i think the both brushes (or just one) could get stuck between the carging dock connectors at some point.

Hi vince I have already told you certain componments have a maximum temprature for soldering/unsoldering. The mosfet comes in at......Soldering Recommendations (Peak Temperature) d for 10 s(seconds) 260c. In real life you can exeed these, but you have to know a bit about the componmets. With that mosfet the Drain is the centre leg and also the tab soldered to the board, as this is also a heatsink in operation it also covers the back 1/4 of the package. When desoldering you want the heat on the TAB at the top of the mosfet with the air directed at and under this tab NOT concentraited on the top of the package. Also with any liquid damadge board, once cleaned it is a good idea to reflow all the componment joints where the damadge was.

schotky diodes are often used as rectifiers in switching PSUs. No only because it speed but since their drop is half o even lower compared to and standard diode, they disipate half the heat. Computer PSUs can deliver at 50A on 12V, 50A times 0.6 is not the same as 50 time 0.3. Of course the PSu has heatsinks and fans to take the heat out but this lead to less efficiency. Gamer PSU like themrlatake at the 700W range use special 0.1V diodes trying to cut the waste as much as possible. Then they use more complicated rectificatrion things. The drop doenst look that much but at 50A everything gets a problem.

and don't forget that the peak current in SMPS is usually much higher than what you actually draw from the output! It's so crazy to see that even the beefiest schotky diodes don't suffice for modern PC PSU anymore and they use synchronous rectifiers. but 50A output could easily mean 500A peak in the rectifier...

Nice one, Vince. The problem circuit was in the water damaged corner, wasn't it? I suspect that it was switched on when wet resulting an excessive current draw through the MOSFET which caused it to fail short circuit. That excessive current is probably the cause of the resistor failures also. For parallel resistors it's not quite the path of least resistance, best look up the formula. e.g.10 & 47 ohms in parallel= 8.24ohms. 100 & 100 = 50. One thing I keep saying, your little bit of solder isn't a little. Please search for images of solder fillets, Blobby joints are painful to see. Why buy components from eBay? Better to get them from CPC, Digikey, RS, Mouser etc. more certain they're legit and they have the datasheet so you can check dimensions etc.

are you talking from experience? I am genuinely cuious. they do not mentioning bending radius/distance in any smd datasheets. but for through hole devices the manufacturers are notoriously paranoid about bending stress. they usually require clamping the lead near the package and bending distance at least 2 mm from the package. we hobbyists usually don't care though..

VVerVVurm no there are no radius infos in datasheets for smd components but I experienced this a few times. If a mosfet failed the plastic case got very brittle because of the heat. I obce had a failure where the breach uncovered the chip die and it was covered with black dust. There is no guarantee for my answer but the leg seemed not be bent too much. I guess with excessive force you can kill a mosfet also but who knows what the real cause was?

43:26 That's wrong Vince. If two resistors are in parallel current won't flow only by the easiest way, it will flow both ways, that means total current will be higher compared with using just the lower resistor. Example: 2 x 100 ohm in parallel = total 50 ohm 100 and 200 ohm in parallel = total 66 ohm 10 and 47 ohm in parallel = total 8 ohm Formula is: 1/Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + ... + 1/Rx

I've only seen mosfets fall apart like that one after they blew up. When you lift a leg on a good one it just bends the plastic case and the bonding wire connecting the leg to the chip, but when it blows up the pressure breaks the case into multiple pieces so that the whole component falls apart when you apply even a small amount of stress to the case. It is possible that the fet was blown up by either running the device without the flyback diode (wich suppresses the reverse voltage spike, that motors and other inductive components generate when you stop the current from running through them) connected across the motor, or just by a short circuit sending unhealthy amounts of current through the fet.

8:35 - it's quite normal to have missing component locations - these are usually design decisions. The main reasons are normally due to inventory - similar components with different footprints. It can also be different revisions or local requirements (such as electrical noise suppression or power filtering based on region). Some products are sold with different features, rather than make multiple revisions of the board they simply omit the components that add those extra features. So you can have a "base" model & a "luxury" model - both using the same PCB, saving costs!

The resistor is 0.220 Ohms, it should be easier to solder Schottky diode with hot air, those diodes are best suitable for high frequency power supply rectifying because of their low drop voltage and less capacitance. I think that 2 transistors in series drive that motor, one turns on by CPU when you turn on power (the healthy one) and the second (faulty one) is turned on by CPU when cleaning mode is active. You can actually test MOSFETs for short - directly on the board. You can't desolder that transistor with iron due to massive heatsinking, only with hot air. You can desolder a transistor like this from old computer motherboard as here is not critical because is used as electronic switch, just make sure it is correct N or P type. I see you leaned resistor colour code. It does not reading proper value because of the resistor tolerance is +/-5%. Resistors in series ADD values, resistors in parallel give value = 1/R1 + 1/R2.

5:55 - the use of a diode here is to suppress the back EMF (Electro Motive Force) from the motors (it can also help reduce switching noise). A Schottky diode is used here suggesting there is PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). A diode helps suppress the electrical noise - with PWM the response times need to be quicker, also these diode types are more efficient - good in a battery powered device!

The brush motor is turned on and off by a transistor controlled by the main chip. The main chip sends a low voltage and low current signal to the transistor's gate and the transistor either connects the motor black wire to ground or leave the motor's black wire with high resistance (basically disconnected) for instance. This type of transistor is usually a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor), and when they fail, they usually fail closed circuit, making it basically always on.

I'm surprised you didn't measure the two resistors out of circuit that you suspected were faulty. Another good follow-up vid (if I ran one of those through my house of three kids and five cats it'd choke to death on dirt and hair and never make it through a single room before giving up the ghost, lol)

Hi, I did test them out of circuit but I cut that bit out of the video as it was getting too long:-) They both tested open so had no reading :-)

Always fun and entertaining, thanks. I know this is an old video, but a couple of learning points for any who may read: -Never (re)move a known working component - every dab with a soldering iron is a risk to the component and the board. (remove, test, never swap!) -Continuity testing is certainly important, but check that all components are present and where missing replaced first. -While useful at times, be VERY wary when testing components in situ - you will get some potentially misleading results. I hope that helps somebody. Kind Regards,

The resistor has the EiA-96 marking which is 30 B. The code 30 is 200 in EIA-96 and the B is a multiplier of 10. Here is a link to a table www.hobby-hour.com/electronics/eia96-smd-resistors.php

The MOSFET went s/c and drew to much current through the resistors causing them to burn out and go o/c. The MOSFET would of heated up when it went s/c and damaged the package and caused a micro crack. So when you soldered it, it caused it to fully crack.

With resistors depending on their tolerence, values are designed to cover their tolerence range. for instance if the resistor is 47 ohms at 1% tolerence, the measurement can be anywhere from 46.5 ohms or 47.5. If the tolerence of the resistor is rated at 10% then the resistor can measure about 42 to 52 Ohms. I wouldn't worry too much in this situation just as long as you have a resistor that is as close as possible. here is a good website that explains resistor tolerences and how they are manufactured in a way that it covers their tolerence range www.resistorguide.com/resistor-values/

The usage of a letter prevents the confusion with other marking systems. However, pay attention because the letter R is used in both systems. For resistors with tolerances other than 1%, different letter tables exist. As with package codes, these resistance value codes are common, but a manufacturer may use a variation on these or even something completely different. It is therefore always important to verify the manufacturer’s marking system.

As for the clamp to hold things - that Blue Tac I mentioned before really helps to hold down tiny things and doesn't leave any residue on anything. I use it to hold posters and wires in place. Great stuff!

Yeah, I like the Blu Tack on slightly bigger components but with these tiny resistors they kept getting buried inside the Blu-Tack. I did film it but cut it out to shorten the vid. Double sided sticky tape was one of the suggestions given in the comments and I think that might be a winner :-)

Well done on fixing that, good video. You should not be touching those mosfets because both brushes was spinning. It was wrong control of one mosfet -- a failed pulldown resistor. And, just an advice: you need to learn more theory about components.

Did you bother the reading of the Chinese resistors? Don`t worry! The reading of these resistors is not an exact game! It`s an average value. If the resistor should have 2K, you can read 1990 Ohm as well... And, Bytheway - your cheap Multimeter also is not accurate enough to give 100% readings. There are always tolerances to deal with. The main thing is that it works at last, isn`t it? And - you don`t work with exact 12 Volt either but more with 13,5 to 11.somewhat in such circuits!
