I can do everything micro soldering but I struggle with these encoders. Hate QFN's. And I made the exact same mistake on the F7003 "fuse" pulling the resistor thinking it was a fuse as well and caught my mistake later. It's deceiving by where it's labeled to where it's located at on the board. Its not just me lol. Nice fix as always Tolt!

@@ngonohtc5724 the chip doesn't matter if it's Ali Express or not they're all the same chip lol. It depends on the board you're working on. Everyone has their own method of installing with preferred temps but when installing I would say 420-440c is a good temp since you're using leaded solder and is a safer temp on the chip.

Great video ! Do you know if missing some of the capacitors around the IC (the closest ones) could prevent the console from booting?

Great video! Im having this same problem with mine after a electrical storm it actually knocked out my tv and ran through the hdmi. Im going to try to tackle this myself i already took off the encoder chip and checked everywhere else you did and didnt find anymore shorts so i hope this will fix the problem when the chip comes in. I havent tackled this kind of soldering yet but i guess now is a good time to try since the system is broken anyways. Please let us know whet temp your running your soldering iron and is it in C or F? Also can you tell us what type of solder exactly? Thanks again for the help you give all of us! PS. i was able to find that it was my main board on my tv that got zapped and i was able to order a replacement and it worked thank god but replacement ps5 boards dont come cheap!

What do you call those rods you use to maintain the ventilator connector ? It's such a good trick, I want to try it out. What I'm used to do right now is use a piece of wick, overflow it with solder to make a nice big pad, but those rods look so great lol. Nice video as always !

Those rods are just component leads cut from through-hole resistors and capacitors. I keep the clipped leads because they are useful sometimes.

Hi. Thanks! It was a lead cut from a through-hole resistor. I have a small drawer full of them from past projects. They come in handy for jumpers and such.

Did you not re tin the pads on the board as well? Or is there no need to ?

And you use the micro pensal when the board was still hot what do you do if the board is cool already?

Nice job. Question. Do you have any dap053t ic chips? Or a chip that is equivalent to it?

12:25 - 14:05 = 1min 30seconds. Did you ever experienced popcorn board because of too much heat? 27:43 - Its not only about customers, also do not listen to another service engineer because they also do mistakes, without bad intentions. Follow your own process flow of fixing problems. 30:09 - I saw one guy soldering connectors using desoldering wick instead of wire you placed. Like 1-2mm wide braid, it will hold good. Just an idea.

I can't say I have ever popcorned a PS4 or PS5 board. I may not have shown it but I am using a pre-heater and heating the entire board up slowly over like 10-15 minutes. When the board gets up to like 110C, then I start with hot air from above. I've seen others using solder braid and I'm sure that would work as well. I just happen to have a pile of cut component leads left over from through-hole projects so I use those.

If one side of the capacitor is ground, it is likely a small bypass capacitor. If neither side is ground, it is likely coupling a signal and could be critical.

It could be the encoder. It could also be bad solder connection on the port or an open output filter. There are four differential pair outputs. If one half of a pair is open, it will try to work but have a lot of noise.
