Love the "big boss" timelapse. More please

[@nobuckle40]

Because we watch you work in the microscopic world all the time, it's easy to forget how small the components that you replace really are. That's what amazes me about your work.

[@TheKec789]

I know! a while back I put in a bigger, faster M.2 drive into my Razer laptop and couldn't believe how damn small those components are that he's working on day in and day out!

[@HanCurunyr]

I did disassemble a PS4 controller just to replace the old battery a while ago, and while doing that, I took a moment to inspect the tiny board and look at the components, they are so so so small, that it shows how amazing is Alex's work

[@andrasszabo7386]

I use an oscilloscope, an UNI-T one that is also a multimeter and it is quite small. I don't do business, I fix a lot of things that I buy as faulty, then keep it as a piece of my collection, or sell it. I also fix 8-bit computer stuff that needs more oscilloscope use. A lot of times I do this for fun, and I have learned most of my skills from these Northridge Fix videos

[@Akinon93]

"anything looks easy if you know how to do it" so very true. today, I could replace an hdmi port in a minute or less, 100% chance of it being done properly first time. easy. 2 years ago when I was just learning to solder, it would have taken me a half hour, and I would have potentially torn pads, making it take even longer to run jumpers. practice practice practice!

[@brotherkron]

Im an auto tech and people like to say "that only took you an hour why does it cost so much?" My replay "no that took me 20 years" its all about the experience. You are definitely a master of your craft.

[@DirtyRobot]

When I was a network engineer I would do a 12 hour shift of jobs in the first 4 hours. This would include work on future scheduled jobs. Most other engineers observed me sitting around doing nothing and thought I was lazy when in fact I was about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. It got the the point where all of my hours for the day were already worked and signed off as completed so I had to assist other teams and pick up the slack.

[@OddWorlderer]

Suffering in success :D

[@DirtyRobot]

@@OddWorlderer supporting diversity

[@WEZ4136]

Great video, it really could have been far worse if the customer had tried to do more, I was amazed to see that all the pads were still in place.

[@Buzzys_life_style]

Im from the uk and it always puts a smile on my face when a new video is released and to see such skill thankyou

[@griparian]

[@ahmedbenghait343]

You always make the work seem so simple, and that makes the Hiroshima community grow.😂

[@DutchKingCobra]

always love this quote "Better than factory" nice job as always.

[@leso204]

the problem is nowadays poor qualty control on pc boards' it's not hard to do a better job than the manufacturer .............

[@tomp538]

Yes. You always make the job look easy. Having the right tools for a job, any job, makes things easier too... along with experience.

[@paschalokeke3216]

The smile on bigboss face ..is awesome when he called him boss of all bosses....reminded me of my younger brothers smile when he got things right..

[@Robert-Wip]

Ad 7 minutes and 35 seconds the board already looks mutch better, before that it looked very dirty, so that alone is already a huge improvement if you ask me, great job NorthridgeFix 👌

[@gary00832]

We don’t care about you advertising your stuff you sell on the website, when I say we I mean me and the mouse in my pocket….idk about these other people but I don’t care one bit!!!! Cheers keep the vids coming and a long time no see big boss!!!

[@SY-tx5hb]

Nice idea with multimeter arrangement at Big Boss bench. Now I use the same way

[@chrismckoy3533]

People try it themselves because you make it look so easy! Great video as always, my little 5 year old always enjoys watching them with me!

[@arfurmo8844]

Love Big Boss's precision multimeter mount. Genius!

[@rodhester2166]

lol.. you got me on the looking at wrong connector.. as always thanks for the laughs.. always good to laugh and learn at the same time.

[@gurisingh622]

Beautiful soldering on the connector❤

[@tomtheaged]

Have no worries about self advertising, it's effective haha. Planning on buying the basic line up soon myself. You're ability to make it look so easy makes me want to strive to achieve even a fraction of your skill.

[@MrMojolinux]

Alex, on the last wide shot of your (new) bench, I did not see your fume extractor? Just curious.

[@richardoverfield]

Big Boss has an awesome Multimeter holder! I have one of those VESA double mounts and will do the same!

[@JohnnyBazzinga]

Good work!

[@Aharpoon24]

Do you have a suplier where you get your replacement chips, components etc? Or do you get them from doner boards only?

[@Jackson_Harris]

Much love from the Bahamas ❤ We definitely need a Hiroshima playlist on your channel 😂😂

[@RectifiedMetals]

Agree Alex, it’s a waste of time to use the oscilloscope unless you’re repairing audio circuits. When the majority of the time you’re measuring voltage properties, what’s the point? DC is boring to look at.

[@davidd.484]

I only use an oscilloscope when fixing audio gear - which is rare. It's great for keeping paperwork from blowing away.

[@OnStageLighting]

Me too, and then pretty much only to trace audio signals along a path.

[@nigelwright7557]

I use an oscilloscope all the time. Its good for tracing digital signals. I use a multi meter for DC voltages.

[@Ryan_DeWitt]

Reminds me of a mechanic saying. We charge by the hours the book time says. For example this particular job has a book time of 2 hours. However, after 20 years of experience and doing this countless times, I can get the job done in less than 45 minutes. However I charge the client for the two hours because I am not going to take a pay cut for getting better at my job.

[@vomytdaug]

I used to use a scope to help narrow down issues based on signal out , then much like yourself when you find what is most likely then common failure I never touched it again .

[@davidadkins6412]

There's no harm in advertising the products you carry. That's good business

[@hawkeye7729]

Glad to hear you have family involved with your business ❤

[@gregfisher216]

Great work Alex as always and Big Boss ,the boss of all bosses ! I think the oscilloscopes look cool ,like old tube radios but that's about it.

[@An.D]

The only real reason you need a scope is for data/address lines, good job Alex man ✌👍

[@elijahjags8949]

One Shot , One Time..Good work as always

[@Mikomanus]

"i'm lookig at the wrong port, thats why" just got me :D Nice job as always.

[@RedRacconKing]

The Oscope is more for developing hardware. It does not make sense to use it when troubleshooting the hardware unless you are having a signaling issue.

[@avirtualworld4U]

Rite arm, my Wife says I am carrying a lazy man's load to get all the groceries at once but that's just me.. Love your work, my next life I want to be your apprentice @ NorthridgeFix

[@MrKrezol]

You do magic on this channel. I can’t do whatever you do because I have unsteady hands and I don’t have tools

[@drissdjellali2953]

Better than factory as Alloways ,i wish the big boss make a channel on how to dismantle devices i will love to see him on youtube ❤

[@adiposerex5150]

Excellent work as usual.

[@sonjakavalut]

It was nice to see the Big Boss in action.❤

[@budp.4209]

Hell ya!! what a genius, Alex you're the best

[@ByteDelight]

Someone has to draw Alex as a spider with shopping bags now... For a t-shirt.

[@terrymax5340]

Great work . Excellent 👌👍

[@jryngki5094]

On next video I would like to see you do replacement the type C charging port/pin. On mobile devices like Samsung or any other mobile using type C charging port/pin. I want to see because it very hard for me to do it.

[@alexvswrld]

Awesome, another happy customer.

[@TSAVVVV]

LMAOOOO "follow the robber" "But at least now you have a solid connection" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@crashoverride328]

One of the problems I run into is when someone watches a video and it was component G that fixed the issue on the device in the video, so they swap (Or try to swap component G and it doesn't fix theirs, so they watch more videos, swap more parts and by the time it makes it's way to you they have been through half the alphabet then complain when you give them a price IF you are even willing to look at it. One example was on a vehicle. Customer had replaced PCM, Alternator, several relays and some wires. Still not charging. So I did a diag only for them. One test - told them to replace the alternator fuse. Fixed.

[@OnStageLighting]

I had one recently (was an automotive board) where customer asked me to do specific thing and sent link to the KZbin video that showed the problem and a repair. They probably watched the first 5 mins, then skipped to the end. They also must have skipped the bit just before the last part which basically said "this didn't fix the issue, so I bought a new board."..... LOL

[@pel666]

Another great Vid, practice is the mother of all skills, let me add assumption is the mother of Chaos. Meassuring gives knowledge, you are a legend! (as is big Boss)

[@theshemullet]

Big boss has a nice new area. A lot more space and less clutter to let him work.

[@Jason-zh7wo]

Great job guys 👍👍

[@williamaungleyraud]

Lol ya brother I do exactly the same with my groceries, and my wife asks exactly the same. It's the good old saying, measure twice, cut once. 😎👍

[@alexhunter0815]

Question: What are the ~ costs for such a repair? New port, new chip in a Hiroshima environment? Without shipping... roughly? I always wondered why customers try it, fail etc.

[@tomasis7]

new place looks very nice and clean

[@bblod4896]

Good morning Alex, Big Boss and Pops.

[@jrcogburn]

what temp is your iron when your desoldering with the wick? I feel like im not using enough heat based on how easy solder transferred to your wick in this vid.

[@SON4Main]

Do you use unleaded solder? Leaded or Low Melt makes it so much easier.

[@jkazos]

The Big Boss Reassemble music really sounds like a video game dungeon approaching the Big Boss.

[@marcyd2007]

Alex, your work stations looks more like a recording studio every time I see it. I would be interested to see a little more about the equipment you use for recording from your different camera's, lighting & sound etc. I see a lot of KZbinrs wearing microphones that look like little furry Mice stuck to their T-Shirts but you use something very different 🙂

[@oemytech]

I use to repair my own equipment. But, age and new technology put me out to pasture. I leave it up to the experts now.

[@AK2I47]

2:16 lol that one got me😂

[@tousifahmad1014]

Me too 🤣🤣

[@martinvaci7166]

Yeah I rememeber same story when boss once asked me add extra function to GEM 80 PLC, a delay timer for one of the processes, I always worked on Allan Bradley and SIEMENS S7s the aswer was its simple just adding a times should take around 30 min to do so, but learn how do that 30 min job on GEM80 would take me 2 days as I never work on that XD

[@seanys]

I started watching these videos for the electronic repairs but I’ve kept watching them for the philosophy and life advice.

[@markpmar0356]

The new facility looks excellent.

[@NorthridgeFix]

100%

[@CNC295]

$1 to fix problem. $99 because you know what the Problem is. Experience is value.

[@hdg.s4764]

Nice job.... but :: why big boss dont make thermal paste ::

[@2005saadcomputer]

you're a professional🎉

Noticed Hiroshima in the news last week, and was surprised. Today It’s a well off city with a population of 1.2 million , and downtown Hiroshima looks like Times Square .

[@saadelharrak6015]

[@SommaRain]

How did u took off the chip such easily? Im using lukey 702 at 450 Celsius and i cant even make it move

[@Davpana]

Where is ended the Vivobook?

[@SteveOnTheRoadNH]

I always say this when people complain “If I do a job in 30 minutes it's because I spent 10 years learning how to do that in 30 minutes. You owe me for the years, not the minutes.”

[@trichert7360]

I think , first chip, then connector would be a bit safer tho

[@danwyan]

I always wonder what goes through these people's minds when soldering like that. Do they think "if the pads weren't supposed to be soldered together, then why are they so close to each other?" or "I saw that Northridge Fix guy on KZbin solder a MOSFET. He said it's fine to solder pads together."? SMH at those folks

[@myne00]

Is there a reason you don't use solder paste?

[@OnStageLighting]

Don't think I've ever seen a broken port on the One X. Not even sure I've got the part here. TDP158s, every time.

[@lildzhank]

18:47 do you remove old thermal grease before applying new? 🤭

[@drmohammedalmasri]

“Let’s this hiroshima the bahamas” quote 😂

[@elamriti]

question is why did the retimer chip die ?

[@apepmttt]

I can not show you how I use a osciloscope because of NDA agreement but I can assure you I almost have to use it every day. Not all repair is failed user aplayence. I work in pumps. Fuel pumps. Those where you fill your tank unless you changed to electric. Even repair those too. Wen it's a problem with communication to the main pos. A osciloscope is a must.

[@KKarl1337]

3:33 very true and inspiring words

[@MyRealDelusion]

Oh no I know how hard this is and you make it look wayyyy to easy.

[@testickles8834]

I use the term "efficiently lazy" If you do it right the first time, you never have to do it again.
