I am an accountant by profession but I am slowly becoming a computer expert just because of your videos
wow.. working only by cleaning.. proper nice, good from the client to bring laptop for repair same time.. AND NOT SWITHING IT ON!💯👏
🤣🤣🤣200 pounds for clearing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This Macbook is so wet it has fish inside 🐠 🤣🤣
now fish is dyeing
Good lesson, never gave guarantee for liquid damage stuff, that they will fails again soon. thank you sir Sorin for today's Lesson. ❤
lesson? what lesson? lol,n00b. 200 pounds for clearing ,this is a lesson
20 minutes working with IPA will give you the ability to talk a second language 😂
30:20 magic touch, almost made the line go away just by cleaning it!
Very nice & proper repair, what works very well for me is the use of isopropyl for general cleaning and then the Zippo to improve contacts and leave a tinny protective layer because zippo's oil in self. i remember in some time Sorin used to use this ZIppo on his repairs.. for me was always a good idea !
A good ultra sonic cleaner would be a good thing for you to have. I'm quite sure that can clean it more.
Linus Sebastian from LMG cleaned some pcbs in a dishwasher. Once they are dried out properly before any voltage is applied they will suffer no damage.
Outstanding work!
I am so grateful for your videos. Outstanding.
Great work once again Sorin 👌🙂
Nice cleaning Sorin. You are universal.
Next perfect work, and thank you for describing every step :D
Good job mate
i bet you 10 quid the audio does not work, or at the very least the headphone port does not work, i work on this model often (a2337) and water always destroys the little audio io/daughter board. easy fix/replacement. also not a hater, i genuinely think you are the man, i watch daily, 4-5 years or so, your low melt solder paste is amazing also.
Low melt solder (aka "low melt allow") in general is a game changer. I discovered it more than 20 years ago from ZEPHYRTRONICS while learning to rework expensive, prototype PCB's. I've watched techs ruin boards, and make UGLY repairs due to struggling with component removal -- they do not know the secret 😁.
"I bet you 10 quid the audio does not work" 27:10
Smart and lucky costumer💪🏻
You are the master 👌
I am learning sir
You missed your calling. You could have been a Dentist. 🦷Previous videos drilling skills on a "decayed" motherboard, and today (tooth) brush cleaning as well. You could charge more as well.
I have a heater exactly like the one that Sorin is using to dry the laptop.
IPA works wonders on corrosion caused by liquid damage. The risk as said is just how long will it continue to work? If there is still unseen damage under the components, then it is just down to your luck regarding the long reliability of the laptop.
This is not a repair, this is a cleanup. Just kidding, great job Mr. Sorin!
That was fresh job.
Straight from Thames river i guess.
Rosin my friend this is a perfect job to use WD-40... a non conductive material that repels water and moisture...
Maybe ultrasonic will dissolve stuff under chips, but then again I've seen Rossmann clean under chips first, be it with sticky liquids..
It's wise to have an up to date Time Machine backup.
Does anyone else enjoy watching this blue corrosion? A nice looking color indeed :))
To me, it all looks GREEN 💵 💵 💵 😂
@@hightttech hahaha
Think you
Come to Besiktas, Sorin...I hope that's water...
I personally would have plopped the motherboard in my ultrasonic cleaner immediately. As it is doing its thing, I would have dried the screen\keyboard+case with a fan, much like you did. Then I would have dried the motherboard in my oven at 60c hot air for about 1 hour
nice Work :-)
In this case what if we dip parts of board in alot of isopropyl alcohol so the fresh water mixes with it and then evaporates?
Nice product placement... ultraSorin cleaner
You can put it in ultrasonic cleaner ❤
just through it in a ultra sonic cleaner sorin
Maybe a good idea to shield the tantalum capacitors from the hot air when removing the metal shield?
@tim0steele: Tantalum capacitors withstand the heat caused by hot air very well. Sometimes, like MOVs (metal oxide varistors), they are "carbonized" by sudden voltage spikes (transient). On the other hand, electrolytic capacitors (aluminum body) withstand a maximum temperature of 450 Celsius, in common consumer appliance applications, so it is highly recommended to cover them with Kapton tape or other suitable insulating material, if any are close to the component you want to remove. Northridge posted a video in which one of them exploded on him, fortunately without affecting his personal safety, while he was carrying out Hot Air repair work at a temperature of almost 500 degrees Celsius. All the best.
@@user-bh1tj8df3l Many experts advise against using hot air rework on or near tantalum capacitors due to their sensitivity to high temperatures (according to ChatGPT!). Definitely agree about electrolytic capacitors, they don't like heat at all.
Sorin sir please replay what is difference btw ultra sonic and alcholhol
ultrasonic cleaning of that board, would that help?
Sorin's FastFixing
Loool today I had exact same Macbook with very similar liquid damage on the motherboard. The macs love water or what hah
Your Power Supply's probe was touching, it's outputing current
The shield that never got soldered back on:
lololol 😂😂😂
SORIN, speaking of waterdammage I felt playing with my quest 3 in the pool for about 1 second, switched it of, dried it, shook it ! Put it in 1 kg of rice, 1 day in the sun but even if it boots no video only the welcome sound. I took it apart and didn't,t se waterdammage on the motherboard. Can the water creep under the gpu? Do you think it will work eventually? Greetings from Mexico
I think that Macbook got wet a lot longer than before today. I would not rule out keyboard issues with that much water. Will this user make regular backups of their data? Possible.
Hello🤝good job 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋👋
26:22 nothing is exploded 😅
Hey when i power my MacBook only the keyboard show lights that its on but nothing displayed on the screen
my first thought was what exactly was the liquid?
what MacBook air it is ? I see that it is M series, but wat exactly ? How about restoring the shields with the holes inside ?
A backup disk costs so much less than £200... Every time I receive a data recovery job I want to scream. If the data was important, why don't you keep a backup? Time Machine is maybe the best feature of MacOS.
here clean whit ultrasonic and alcohol iso
I can believe 👌
That much water and id be like, "Your laptop is dead my friend, forever gone, RIP 💻⚰️🪦!" Sorin is like, "Proper damage, ill have it back to you in 30 minutes or less." 😎
repair by proper calibrated brush..
Sorin's Power Supply in short-circuit mode on. hahaha. At 15 minutes of the video.
Nobody is using the Power Supply Unit for this repair. Mystery of the Haunted Workshop
Power supply felt left out, decided to do voltage injection
If you really want to be efficient, you invest 80 pounds on a decent ultrasonic cleaner, you put the board there, you leave it for an hour or two and in the mean time you work on other repairs. The final result will be way much better than brushing with a tooth brush and IPA.
This Macbook should have just gotten a proper sea burial
That was repetitive water damage. Some of that was long term.
It's better to put it on ultrasonic cleaner
20:32 ... and *iThink* we're raydee ...
Omg that thing was just dunked in water
How come you don't put that in an ultrasonic cleaner - it would clean it faster - suggestion only
The frequency of Sorin's ultrasonic cleaner is only 2 Hz.
Did the customer really pay the 200$ price for cleaning with IPA and a brush? For that price, you could have at least unscrew the touchpad and clean underneath there - it will corrode and cause sudden restarts and kernel panics.
Seriously. Soaking wet! What did they do to it??
Should get yourself an ultrasonic cleaner for jobs like this.
Apple engineer watching this: ENGINEERING MEMO. From now all rubber seals will be removed from all models in production so we can save 1c per unit. This means any level of water damage=dead laptop=customer buys new laptop=we make $$$$. End-Of-Memo.
Not apple engineer, apple bean counter. I have the feeling that engineers here try to do the best job they can, and some idiot in accounting keeps ruining the engineers' work wanting to save that 1c.
macbooks from nature are attractive to corrosion, also some macbookusers are really weird of what you might find inside the macbooks........L.R. knows all of that.....
Next Macbook will come in a fish tank.
That hahaha is 200 pounds 😅❤
Cleaning is an action when removing something away...not spreading it all over, I think...you?
wow....today you have ....PPPIIIIZZZZZAAAAA...by the away....nice video....
Does anyone there in your country puts their water devices inside a sack of rice?? - i know it sounds so stupid but alot of people still cling to this belief.
Why is there not a laptop that can work underwater?
wow first
Today I had 😂 a liquid damage to repair, coincidence 😂 . Well 😢 the screen got bad though but the motherboard is ok 👌 .
staged if you ask me.....not by you sorin but just a guy like to see the video........spilled water on purpose....attended you.......might be.
No way I would do this for a customer same day. 1) I take picture of damaged areas 2) Throw in ultrasonic cleaner, submerge it in alcohol for 10 mins, let it dry over night in front of fan. I also put the keyboard in front of fan 3) I reflow CD chips 4) Test for problems. I also upsell on bad parts. Usually battery and keyboard dead with this type of spill You forgot to check under heatsink CPU area 😬
Brilliantly done Sorin 2 pizzas tonight we’ll done ✅ 😊
Waste of time 😂 any other part can be faulty or become faulty in a very short time !!! Send them to Apple shop 😂
