The part where you're a little confused by the hdmi cable not going in made me laugh a little. That was literally the reason they sent in the card.

I think it's just that he anticipated the possibility that bending the connector had broken circuits, which isn't unreasonable since that applies to so many of his repairs. All the same he worked through it.

this is a brilliant example how NOT listening to the customer is sometimes a good thing. If you went by there word you would of replaced the connector and it still wouldnt have worked. They would never of guessed about the blown fuses. Also he could of took this to other places who possibly woudl just change it charged him and said well i did what you asked even though it didnt work when returned. well done sir

When fuses are at work they are always in emergency mode and always very delicate and simple vibration breaks the thin wire inside them that’s probably why they failed when there was nothing shorting it makes sense to me they failed when current is going through them and the bang on the ground broke the connection in them.

I wonder how much time you would save by having a simple app where you scan a QR code stuck to the donor board and it tells you how many of each component you have on that board, if you use something you just click to minus 1. But I guess it would either take time to count at the start or require the schematics for the donor boards to know what is on it.

Also, cap power. Capacitors can store a difference in potential and, because they are designed to release that charge all at once, caps can easily blow fuses if there's a temporary short.

Alex explained in a previous video that he stopped using Paypal due to scams. One example he gave was a customer reporting him for combining two orders into one shipment. Customer reported only receiving one package. In the end, Paypal sided with customer and Alex had to eat the cost the cost of the larger order.
