Repair Shop Ripped Him Off - Let's Fix It!
Рет қаралды 254,351
Ай бұрынRepair Shop Ripped Him Off - Let's Fix It! The seller of this Xbox Series X took it to a repair shop for HDMI port repair but after spending $400 it only worked for about a month before it went back to not showing an image on the screen. Let's take it apart and see if we can figure out what went wrong. And get it working again, of course.

Started with bulb and what do you know?! It was busted! Replaced bulb and just like that, all fixed!. 100 hours of enjoyment so far! Awesome!! It was a risk that paid off 😊

@russellzauner Ай бұрын
100% it was someone who's literally never fixed anything, they got it open, found when they pushed on the socket it would kind of work, they taped it, claimed victory. They had it torn all apart so they thought they were supposed to throw some more thermal paste in there, like regreasing a bearing sort of, so the more the better.

After reading your posts regarding your health I'm glad to see that you decided to rock the bald. I've never been through anything similar so I can't say how I'd manage it but I certainly respect that you're not letting it define you and (I was gonna say getting back on the horse but it doesn't feel like you ever came off) punching on with work. I found your channel accidentally many years ago when I was trying my very first repair (a micro usb replacement for a nexus 7 tablet) and I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't cursing how easy you made everything look while I was in a mess of screws and solder. Thank you so much for your contributions to both my poor attempts to repair and the electronics repair category on KZfaq in general, Steve. The motivation to try something new for the first time is incredibly hard to find and I can't even imagine just how many people have been inspired to because of your videos.
