UPDATE: I HAVE CORRECT THE LOW AUDIO PROBLEM FROM THE ORIGINAL VIDEO. THIS SHOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM MOST PEOPLE WERE HAVING. Cheers
This video shows how to solder a NAND-AID into a Wii U console with a failing or bad eMMC chip. This is a PERMANENT FIX to repair bricked consoles, consoles with errors: 105-0644, 160-0103, 160-2215, consoles with corrupt data, consoles that won't factory reset, consoles stuck in a factory reset loop as well as consoles that are stuck on the Wii U logo menu or freeze on the menu and finally consoles that freeze or error on updates to games or firmware. While other methods exist that seem to resolve these issues on Wii U Hynix based consoles, the other fixes are only temporary. This is the full installation from start to finish with commentary explaining what I am doing. I hope others wanting to do this repair find this helpful. Also this video and additional resources at my website should allow anyone to complete this repair, including those who have never done a repair like this.

Is there any harm in doing some of the prep-work like tinning pads on the NAND-AID before I start working with the Wii U board? I'm very much a soldering newbie so anything I can do to make the process easier is good.

How find the sd board?

You can purchase a NAND-AID on eBay. I keep an updated list of sellers in the written installation guide you can find at this link www.tzirf.com/nintendo-consoles-handhelds/wii-u-nand-aid-installation-guide-complete/

You write that you need a backup of the SLC and MLC. My Wii U is completely bricked with a black screen. How do I make this work with my console's condition?

You only need to back them up if you plan on restoring data. If you look at my written guide it explains that without a backup you will have to rebuild the MLC, thus losing all data on the console. Honestly its the preferred method as restoring corrupt data and then repairing it is extremely time consuming. I recommend you start with the recovery menu + UDPIH. You will need to install ISFShax using the recovery menu to repair a console with a NAND-AID. www.tzirf.com/nintendo-consoles-handhelds/wii-u-nand-aid-installation-guide-complete/

@@christiangetchell8218 You can use de_fuse to boot stroopwafel instead of udepih or ifshax. Ifshax need to be installed before it breaks and udepih only work if the mlc still has enough data on it for the system to draw the wii u boot screen. Only complicated thing about de_fuse is that it requires you to solder the raspberry pico on the wii u board but it can be used to revive ANY brick, even blinking blue light!
