Good to see you back again Sorin , been missing your ingenious adaptability and broad knowledge based teachings 👌

[@marcocambon]

Nice vide Sorin. I really love your approach: keep simple, keep cheap, keep your brain!

[@christopherj3367]

love the fact you still strip wires with your teeth, great work once again, its a delight to watch your way of thinking through problems

[@Qban220]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge Sorin. Very interesting and educational video. You're a legend!

[@coryjay9384]

Sorin is the multimeter king. I'm beginning to believe that the Creator the inventor the founder of the multimeter can't even use it as good as my man Sorin. I learn something new every time I watch him do what he does best solve problems totally through electricity basically the man's a genius

This is absolutly not for a beginner. Respect. Thank you for sharing.

[@charlieandrews2873]

This is practical thinking outside the box, more people need to get out of the box & have a look around, you don`t need gloves to give it a go, Thanks Sorin, one of your best yet, we could see your brain ticking to come up with a solution & you didn`t disappoint, this is old school electronics in a modern world :)

[@earthelder2065]

WoW! definitely an intricate repair! Thanks Sorin that was an amazing ..........

[@djordjeblade]

Flashing timer on those Pioneer micro-systems means it is activated short circuit protection or some power rail is missing. Pioneer say that they have code for every type of flashing combination.After repair,flashing timer on some models keeps flashing and it is just needed to reset the unit with combination of buttons. Power + play/stop or Input + >> but that combination is maybe not possible on this particular model.

[@johnoddvar1967]

Its a lott of people that think this is dodgy. But if it has to work to day i think this is the only way. I have learned so much from you.

[@Edw590]

Thank you for another great video! I like messing with stuff. I love to least least try to fix broken things I have at home haha (or improve them, which sometimes I like more!). And you teach us how to fix them (provided we have some knowledge about this stuff). So thank you so much!!! I'm learning very cool stuff here... I'll stick with the channel 😄. See if I have time to watch some lives (not sure, but would be interesting). A thing though. When the small power supply wasn't working, maybe you could have checked the current? The voltage could be the same, but it could have dropped the current, maybe? Or that doesn't usually happen? (Or it can't happen at all because of the power supply or something?)

[@klwthe3rd]

I"m so glad that Sorin is so entertaining and fun to watch because i don't understand a damn thing he was doing! HEHEH. Until he finishes his beginner electronics classes, i'm not aware of all these different procedures he performs. Great video otherwise.

[@user-ug9nn]

He show how he is repairing electronics, not training others, you have understand what is he doing if you have already repaired 1,2 .. switched mode power supplies and understand how they work.

[@witektaaham6297]

@@user-ug9nn then this is not any electronics repair school ... because what kind of school is this where they don't teach anything? ...

[@runthomas]

proper electronics...understanding of circuit...it reminds me of a music amp i bought...100 pounds below value as i needed to buy and put 2 chips in it...it was not fully assembled by accident..... my sister boyfriend took my amp while i was away and went round town telling everyone how he fixed an amp due to his electronics skills...and he kept my amp.... i only found out when my old amp blew up and i went to collect my brand new amp that needed the 2 chips and it was gone...i was livid.

[@KiloWatt304]

i have never in my life binge watched a KZbin channel , But this one YES great Videos you remind me of me working on stuff. use your brain and anything goes even if it means redesigning the circuits to get it done great job . might want to try a filter cap on your output on that small supply

[@TheMcdrewb]

Lol I found you a week ago..u are really entertaining and enlightening

[@banjoperator]

dodgy is not a word i would use ..the word i would use is innovative... that describes what you do with ypur knowledge of how things work and a method to keep things working.. i think the owner is happy to have it back working rather than the power saving feature the manufacturer put in as a selling point..good work Sorin...

[@Lance_MadCat]

Thank you for the lesson!

[@TheMaGGiiiii]

Thank you for the experience , Mr.Sorin :-) You´re very good teacher! Never give up! :-) Can you anytime make a video about different soldering wires ? Whats the difference? What are you using?

[@josephwilson3573]

My method: On the DMM diode scale, check forward and reverse probe polarity the diodes, and the switching MOSFET, and it looks like the MOSFET switching transistor is shorted, and the fuse blew. Replace the MOSFET, diode(s) if bad, the PWM Controller chip, and the fuse! Then the whole unit should work! No more wires and substitution of power supplies!

[@josephbrennan4622]

That was 1 brilliant fix, and no schematics, well done Teacher.

[@josephbrennan4622]

Even with your new power supply's with using the mains one wouldn't it need that fuse and relay. Fantastic shows Sorin......

[@Dr.Leszek]

Thanks for another great video, worth that 2 hours of watching to see the Pioneer logo which means it's working :D

[@MemoKab93]

Welcome Back Sorin!!

[@user-ug9nn]

I have looked on some of your videos, And I really like them, you really do repairs, and I like the simple ways you do it. I just do repair for myself, and always go on the opposite side. 1. That circuit (the relay) it was made to switch off the transformer from ecological point of view, low power consumption, the transformer and circuits that power it (sorry if I am wrong I have not look to the entire movie) 2. A repairman can't be smarter than a good engineer, so the repair should be done to the initial design specs, otherwise is not an improvement it is an improvisation. 3. Improvement is done to compensate cheap manufacturing, where from the engineering it was design to low quality material (par example low quality caps or inferior capacity) and simpler design with shortcuts (like missing voltage stabilizers). For this device and Pioneer in general is not the case, as is not Chinese and neither on the cheap side. Both we are from the same country, so I understand the way you work and I appreciate showing you your way how things are done. I also have a DVD player with similar PWM chip blown (TNY267 if I remember correctly), but I will go the right route, order same chip, and make an improvement add a power button so DVD will not be powered at al if not used. This is the issue with all devices plugged and run in standby, if chip inside is not designed for a lifetime, thy high voltage and continuous pwm will short it.

[@zeljkosruk5749]

Of course it is easier to change the chip, condenser and diode,fast and simple measurement of several elements but then we did not learn anything - right? Great and helpful clip - thanks

[@Tom-pd4oc]

You are a genius. Great job.

[@groovejet33]

I don't think there's any issue how you fix it, as long as it's made aware in some way. Or the price represents the job. Customers won't understand anyway so like I said ? As long as it's sorted out in some way that everyone can understand... I can't see a problem👌 Great work as usual

[@hightttech]

I like the opto-coupler trick for identifying unknown rail value -- I'm will try on a supply from the bin.

[@gat1994]

Hi Sorin, I really enjoy and learn from your videos. Do you think the problem could be solved if the diode was identified earlier and you replaced the diode and the fuse? I am wondering if the part you connected 30V to the supply and saw smoke from the chip , that was the point the IC burned, earlier it should have been working since the short on the supply burned the fuse.

[@electronicsrepairschool]

gat1994 hi, no, not the shorted diode burned the fuse, the shorted hv chip burned the fuse! The chip was shorted from the beginnings, thats why i came with 30v on a 300v power rail and the chip was smoking.

[@bigal7864]

Your prices seem very reasonable, where are situated in the UK?...

[@will_doherty]

What did you alter on the new 3.3V supply board (something with the wiring) shortly before the end of the video when the unit began to work?

[@balazsio]

At 56:42 I thought Sorin will say: We failed badly because you didn't say I'm doing wrong! :)

[@NEWDEVICE]

I like your style, what you said its completely true, maybe 80% of the world its in poverty and its very difficult sometimes get spare parts from ebay, etc. I am in argentina, and i can order on ebay or china, but takes months and a lot of papers to get the stuff here, so for the client is not fast if i work in that way. So i am doing like you, taking spare parts from where i can, i think is good becase we recycle and is good for the environment. My channel is on spanish feel free to take a look if you want to do it, saludos!

[@nicemihcos]

6:23 "This will be an easy one" , meanwhile title says "This was a hard one" :))

[@electronicsrepairschool]

Ha ha, yes, indeed, how wrong i could be sometimes :)))

[@user-ug9nn]

It was hard because he chose the hard way, the simple way it was just to order for the replacement chip. I think he does not like to wait, so he try to do it with what he has.

[@ja.935g67]

I would say tricky one!

[@morto360]

How comes you can solder a live wire without shorting it? Isnt the tip of the soldering iron connected to the earth ground? If you touch a live wire, it should short the powersupply, not?

[@ThEwAvEsHaPa]

Sorin, great video as usual.. i bought same mini switching power supply to repair laptop power rail, but it did not work. Do you think it could be because the original driver could not give PGOOD signal?

[@electronicsrepairschool]

yes, you have to simulate that signal also

[@ThEwAvEsHaPa]

thanks Sorin @@electronicsrepairschool

[@ThEwAvEsHaPa]

is it best to simulate PGOOD signal using 3VALW? I tried using 3VLDO and it didnt work it. I am trying to replace 5V power rail. @@electronicsrepairschool

what and where, to soldering.i hope you can zoom in the pcb of power supply.thanks.

[@BRILLOPADral]

Hello, first of all good videos thanks. I have a frameless TV monitor so not very old (2-3 years) a friend left velux open and rain went into base stand where power button and severall other buttons (no essential for TV usage). on a pcb strip connected to monitor via a micro ribbon (5 lines/connections) All I want to do is to get it to turn on. Its been sitting here for a couple years now. Thinking this might be a way of introducing another button. Is there a way I can make a connection to turn on the TV to see if its working? I know these questins are almost imposible to answer specifically. Just jump the TV somehow?

He is so right about this ,ı mean who can really find a power s. board or that chip ,lets say you found it you have to wait months for that and they sell whole and there is shipping cost and all ,it is good to learn improvise soon so you dont have to rely on standards and think out of the box- he just spend 4$ on that and probably it works forever and error free.

[@user-ug9nn]

@@davianceable you just have to wait two days for the chip order from a site like tme.eu (the chip is not a no name Chinese chip - We talk about Pioneer), and you can order even one (depends what you order). I agree with you with thinking out of the box, but we are no more in communism, today we can find what we want.
