[@LoadScreenYT]

Binge watch all your videos ... keep up the good work , Im currently getting into the whole technician repair field , your videos help very much !

[@ToltecMerc]

Best of luck to you!

[@MFreeman]

Im learning a ton from your videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@ToltecMerc]

I'm glad you like them! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@tylerwisniewski]

Having a CUH-1215a (no power) being delivered. I’m hoping it’s a power supply issue, as I’ve ordered a new PS unit for it. But thanks to your videos, I’m going to tear it down, clean it, and hoping the PS is the issue! Thanks for the informative videos!

[@ToltecMerc]

Best of luck in your repairs!

[@tylerwisniewski]

@@ToltecMerc much appreciated

[@tylerwisniewski]

@@ToltecMerc hey, just to let you know, repair went swimmingly. Console was so dirty, couldn’t even manually spin the fan. Gave her a nice bath and replaced the power supply, and bam! Console turns on. Now just need a PS4 controller! 😂

[@ToltecMerc]

@@tylerwisniewski excellent! It’s a great feeling isn’t it?

[@tylerwisniewski]

@@ToltecMerc it really is! This was my first teardown! Thanks for the help

[@pacijentt4367]

Nice video man i like you're fixing videos keep it up with the consoles

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks, will do!

[@Console_Tech]

Another great video ,I had the same issue with this power supply ,one of 3 zeners was shorted .

[@ToltecMerc]

Those resistors and that zener go quite often. I try to keep them on hand. Thanks for stopping by!

[@Armwrsling]

Another great video. Very informative keep up the good work

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks, will do!

[@junks345]

The small quips are always a pleasure. "Alright, I'll just change the power port." "You can see where a roach... blew up." " 'Cause I like to be overconfident."

[@ToltecMerc]

I do try to have a little fun while I work! Thanks for stopping by!

[@Ilegator]

These videos are such a vibe. Not only I'm learning a ton, but it's also so chill and therapeutic. Lovely content. I did get lost on the power supply diagnostics, I guess I'll have to learn much more about it. Also, could you tell me what did you use to measure the big caps and decharge them? Thank you so much for all of your videos!! Edit: I found the discharger u used in AliExpress

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoy the videos and found the discharge tool. It's handy for power supplies.

[@petel6856]

Another great video. Very informative. Just curious, what hot air station are you currently using?

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you! It’s a Quick 861DW.

[@carbonblackprod]

Great video as always. Do you repair anything other than consoles?

[@ToltecMerc]

Occasionally I work on MacBooks.

[@carbonblackprod]

@@ToltecMerc can you plz do a video then? that would be really interesting to watch?

[@observadore]

Nice job, congratulations from Brazil.

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you very much!

[@ob1skywalker82]

Nice... as always. That was some roach party!! thanks for sharing 👍

[@ToltecMerc]

Yep, they are nasty but I bought it so I need to get it fixed and resold. Thanks for stopping by!

[@livingledsanjuan8798]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge

[@ToltecMerc]

I'm glad you found it helpful!

[@Senux-Video]

Thanks for job sharing. Aliens inside, like few times. After clean work is sweeter.

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank You!

[@Daveyk021]

Great job; again those damn things make my skin crawl. Do you ever get them in with live roaches in them?

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you! As best I can remember, only once have I seen a live roach in a console.

[@toolsarecool]

A nice simple one every now and then sure helps to keep the momentum going, doesn't it? And another device saved from the recycling fate. The roach, however, shall not be so lucky. 😎

[@ToltecMerc]

Yeah it was a little simpler than I thought it was going to be when I started recording. Oh well. Thanks for stopping by!

[@toolsarecool]

@@ToltecMerc No matter how simple, I always learn something from your videos. Cheers!

[@cristiansantos5742]

Thank you

[@ToltecMerc]

You are welcome!

[@90sArcadeKid]

Thumbs up, I also repair Playstation consoles, great content makes me sleep better 😅

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you! Best of luck in all your repairs! Make some videos to share you experience.

[@90sArcadeKid]

@@ToltecMerc yeah that would be fun, need a professional multimeter any specific model you could recommend? Thanks!

[@ToltecMerc]

@@90sArcadeKid Fluke makes good stuff. Find a decent used Fluke meter.

[@90sArcadeKid]

@@ToltecMerc yes Fluke are nice, which model would you recommend since there are models recommended for electricians and others for electronics? Thanks again

[@Sonic2903]

Nice repair! I'm struggling to find that small eject button spare part... I have 2 boards which buttons are completely flat and need to be changed, but i can't find them... :/

[@ToltecMerc]

I have used Mouser part# 667-EVP-AF7B65

[@OTuit]

Nice job!

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks!

[@HKsystem]

Hello sir , thanks for the video is there any fix for CE-34878-0 on ps4 error yet? do you think Reballing APU would fix the problem?

[@nikeshgupta8362]

Hi have u tried to UART it ? this could be nor corruption get bwe nor checker and check the nor dump

[@HKsystem]

@@nikeshgupta8362 thank you sir , will do

[@josef19dz]

Your hand like Gold woooow

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you!

[@muratrisvan]

Thanx master ♥️🇹🇷

[@ToltecMerc]

Always welcome

[@EviL-nf3ro]

Doing great job

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks!

[@rfr653]

Good job mate 👍

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you!

[@Trading_sos]

I have one slim that beeps once then 3 beeps and shuts off. To come on again need to unplug it then plug it back in. Ever happened to you?

[@ToltecMerc]

The three beeps sounds like an overheat warning.

[@Trading_sos]

@@ToltecMerc yes that is what it sounds like. The thing is its the only thing it does. It wont even boot to say it overheats. Is not booting, it beebs like this and shuts right off. No video on KZbin gives me any hint on this slim

[@dpking3243]

Can I send you my power supply to have it fixed? How much would you charge?

[@hannescampidell]

are you using linux and if yes what distro

[@ToltecMerc]

Ubuntu 22.04.1 with the XFCE desktop.

[@hannescampidell]

@@ToltecMerc cool i am using archlinux with gnome 43.2 it works perfectley

[@nikeshgupta8362]

Could i get the part number of that fusible resistor thanks :)

[@ToltecMerc]

Digi-key part # 0.16ACCT-ND

[@rlgarcia25]

I can’t believe you didn’t wear gloves! That is yuk!

[@ToltecMerc]

I probably should have but it just did not occur to me.

[@dracus6877]

God! If we can only see where these ps4 have been during its life. How in the world did it in infested with roaches

[@ToltecMerc]

We probably would not want to see the things they have seen. If the console has so many roaches inside, imagine how many are in the rest of the house!

[@hove131]

That thing would get a good scrub then in to my ultrasonic 🤢🤮

[@ToltecMerc]

True. It could use it. I don't own one.

[@OldSkoolF]

Roaches... SO GRODY!

[@ToltecMerc]

Totally!

[@chef717717]

First

[@ToltecMerc]

True! Thanks for visiting!
