Thanks for sharing your knowledge Alex, many of us are not even thinking about opening a repair shop, but it's nice and entertaining to see a repair master doing his job, greetings from Colombia!

13:14 my OCD just hit cause those capacitors are not lined up straight and parallel 😂😭

You got all reason, the more. You teach the more you got more customers 'cause they know you're the best one.

I started doing component level not so long ago, and already I've replaced a charging port, a power button, a dead cap in a Retina iMac, and more! You are my main inspiration! Keep going your work is just amazing 🤩

I love watching all your videos there is so much to learn thank you for taking the time to record all this and blessing us with your library of knowledge ❤

As shrewd as you seen at times, you always put a smile on my face especially with the sarcasm. But you are the teacher and we watching are the students. Shukran.

Oh, you went from "better than factory" to "unique". My repairs are usually "unique" and seldom "better than factory". Not pretty but it will work. Thanks for all your videos, i learned so much from them!!

i am not into repairs and i just like the guy talking and i have learned a few things already, and this is the best kind of advertisment you cant get more human than this man and he would make a great teacher

Powering up was suspenseful but at the end, Alex triumphant over the bad guys. Roll credits.

I've just started my business into repairing laptops after a small while of learning how to repair other less complicated devices and I'm actually enjoying your videos learning how to work and repair these devices, Thank you from heart - From Syria

That's why we stay with you because you're sharing everything 😍😍😍

Thanks North fix for sharing knowledge am always advancing in my tech job here on Uganda.

*New addition coming to the product line? Northridge Fix Signature Edition... Cheers!*

good stuff man always learning from your vids much appreciated!

great work and knowledge as always alex learned alot from u and thecod3r

Enjoyed this one, and I appreciate your store.

Truly amazing work. Love the touch. Maybe you can start adding a NF Capacitor sticker on all the boards you repair, so the bad guys learn.

I am watching your Vedo. I can learning something even English very clear thank you 🎉

Very nice and professional content... Thank you.

Many thanks, another super video! 💻🍾❤️

This time worse than factory ;-)

Great Video! 👍 I always imagine a video to the outro music where Mr. Bad Cap got defeaded (Pablo)

Yes,i want to learn!thanks for this another video.

no you have 3 caps in parallel to act as a band trap for different frequencies. The fact that they "add up "to a set value in not what they are doing. they act to trap transients at different frequencies. you will see this when you have several 100 UF caps, with a 100n or 10 n across them. , They aint 'adding up" the capacitance. ,since an electrolytic is +-20% so 100n is FA. The 100n is there to trap high speed noise, long before the electrolytic can "strong arm" the transient.

❤Thank you so much. I learn a lot from you. You're my mentor

Hey Alex, ive been watching your content for a bit now, and started thinking of maybe trying to start doing some repairs. How would you recommend someone get started? I have a little experience soldering (not micro yet). Also i went to school for engineering and feel ive gained more practical knowledge from watching your videos than from a lot of my classes, so thank you very much!

You are on of the great repairman and teacher 👨🏻‍🏫

I love this golden channel i've learned a lot of it .i wanna buy these soldering iron you used in this video but when serached on your website didnt find it or it may be out of stock .best regards from an overseas fan❤

Awesome video :). Most of the ones I get have dead GPU :(

Good job. It would be great to see desktop motherboard repear too. I have a dead motherboard and I struggle with it lol.

Can’t better than factory on that solder job. Lol, thank you for sharing you knowledge

Signed like a true artist, good job as always

I love this man's witty straight forward nature. He reminds of me my dad from the middle East.

Good as always 👍

I'm not a hardware guy, but this is very interesting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

that skip heartbeat hits me too...XD great job btw!

i have a Question is applying super glow in pcb is wrrong and it can make a short sercit or somethings like that

Great job 👍

I always, when i saw always, have a chuckle when you say 'flying out to the 9th dimension'

12:48 had me rolling. Love the content you guys. Your work is inspirational (until I look up the cost of a good microscope)

Good job...

Same with cars, people get embarrassed to tell the truth. No problem, sif your a pro you don't expose that vulnerability. I love watching you. You keep customers data private.

thanku teacher

Another wonderful repair.

Alex dint worry about the comment you told that one person asking you to don't explain the fault in detail actually Alex you are spreading your knowledge to others which gains your knowledge and confidence good bro go bless you 🌹💕💖👍💐💐🏵️🌺

Hello. At 13:42 you test the side I thought was ground. Why did it not show a short and or beep? Are you seeing who's paying attention?

علي فخر لكل عربي في المجال نتمني لك التوفيق if i close to your country i come to Taking a corse alex is the best in his feild

Best teacher we have today.

For me, your videos serve 2 main purposes. To educate me about how to do similar work. And, they serve as a CV/Resume of what you can do so I know what tasks I can send to you.

Nice repair! The Asus ROG BIOS takes long to load and has this surprising screech.

Great Job 👍

Alex taught me about capacitors today.

Fantastic job NF

HAVE YOU REPAIRED ANY SAGE ESPRESSO PCBs?

Brand new to your channel, i see that ur a skilled person with soldering, do you still happen to repair nintendo switchs?

Is all this work done without removing the board from the plastic laptop case? Is it ok generally to do soldering without removing the board first?

Hello, do you ship your Products fromm your website to Germany?

great video once again!

Yes you clean thermal paste, and after that you put new thermal paste on, or thermal pads, depending on situation. But as you say. Knowledge!

جزاك الله خيرا

Good job

I am not watching for the fix, it's an art in my eyes.

salute to you sir

I was about to say that capacitors have to be measured out of circuit, then you mentioned that, thankfully lol. Caps measured in circuit, generally, will not yield the correct value.

الله يعطيك العافية انا بصراحة ما شكيت ابدا انه ما يشتغل . الله يسعدك بهنيك من كل قلبي

how can I contact you I have a problem with my SSD m2 WD Black SN770 1TB

I really need you for my SSD M2 WD Black SN7701TB

Someone may say that he doesn't see any water damage because it could be a laptop used by the family, so he doesn't know EVERYTHING which may have happened to the unit. 6:18, depending on the circuit, the three caps in parallel aren't just for redundancy, but if they are different values, they may be used to reduce ripple in the supply at different frequencies. No way all three of those are the same value.

1:47 Maybe a stupid question. Do you also change the customer's automatically new thermal paste every time or not?

Damn that soldering work on the caps😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

repaired by northridge fix ITS NOW STYLISH worth more than you paid for it

What's up with new asus rog laptop models keep having short circuit issues. The old one that I brought lasted me a good seven years and the new one that I got lasted merely a year, seems like they don't make them like they used to anymore 😢

So I missing cap will still let a laptop run but what if you remove a sorted mosfet will the laptop run?

"northridge fix was here" i like that 😂

I hope one day I will see my laptop get video and repaired. It deserves some TLC and limelight. And of course to be BETTER THAN FACTORY.

Do you also ship from your webshop to overseas? Or USA only?

Hello, I have a Nintendo Switch OLED that turns on but the screen remains black but in the dock if it gives an image you know it can be

Do you fix asus rog strix 3070ti oc gamer. How I connect with you.

Is there any reason why there are 3 parallel capacitor instead of one 15uF?

I have a rog g531g laptop and it stopped charging all of the sudden. The charging light on the laptop started blinking but the laptop can still run on battery so I assume all the main components are fine. I opened it up to check the mainboard and I found out I have short almost on every caps specially those behind the cpu and gpu. I send it for repair and they tell me everything is fine it's probably the charger itself... I wanna know how is that possible that I get short meaning 0 ohm reading on both sides of the caps but they tell me it's all fine? Am I wrong on my reading? I used the screw hole on the mainboard for my ground and I'm sure I got the reading of 0 ohm on both sides of the caps.

Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

Jazakallah khair

Dude, you're phucken awesome!!! You have the coolest teaching method 👍

We started replacing caps in tube circuits....and here we are again.

Crooked caps ,with NF was funny😂😂😂. This sort of honest vidieos r hard to come by❤❤❤thank u

Sir pls make video on 60fps

I've never had a single good experience with ASUS products. 😂

Hello Northridgefix. I am trying to reach out in regards to a possible faulty M_2 SSD. I do not care about the data attached. My PC only boots to BIOS. Monitor stays black for about 1 minute then boots up the BiOS screen. Can a faulty SSD be the cause of this?

Mama Cap is amazing. She gives birth to so many twins or triplets or quadruplets and so on and so forth.

Excellent work, The 9th Dimension, LOL

I'm still dead in the water with an Alienware m17 R4 with a 4 red 1 blue light. Battery disconnects when starting games. Only way I've partially fixed is undervolt.

I can imagine the customer saying in advance about water damage. Because when you send stuff back to manufacturers and you have normal warranty. They always tried to blame it on the customer and they say it has water damage because that always void any type of warranty. so they dont have to repair it unde warranty or they can send you a big fat invoice for repairing..

Great Great fix 😅😅😅

"Say hello to the Bad Guy" lol

معلم اخ علي

I like that he signed his work. lol

BTF again special cap lettering!

learn will not give you experience, you can know what to do, but not how to do, share knowledge it's not a problem nobody can steal your experience

Rare capacitor placement! You can sell it for much more money

Suggestion: you and other electronics fixers on YT do collab with TronixFix (and maybe his wife) owing to his current health situation.
