Thank You 🙂

@reg2590 Год назад

Watched this in three sittings and loved every minute, it's actually quite relaxing; thanks Richard. I think this board is on it's last legs as the tracks are becoming more and more corroded. It will be an Herculean task next time!

@craigcousins6718 Год назад

It's always a good idea to have a break from a a repair and a time to think about what your doing! Some days I have everything go wrong whatever i do then other days I fix everything I touch! Only thing is I lie awake at night trying to work out what to try next!

@Chief_Engineer 5 месяцев назад

That‘s the engineer mindset. I often do problem solving or ponder design ideas while lying in bed, it engages the brain quite a lot and makes you tired. Much better than counting sheep😊

@davidv1289 Год назад

With all that corrosion it may be that the 95 volt supply arced over in the area of those resistors and there is no other short. The corrosion along the rest of that trace may be because it runs warm normally and that increases the rate of corrosion. Tell the customer to stop taking that mixer board to the beach ⛱️ Regards, David

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

Yeah it seems likely that the 95V did arc over there, but I still think some sort of liquid was involved in causing that to happen. It is really odd how the apparent corrosion affects that track across the PCB, but not ones running parallel with it. It's like the high (negative) voltage somehow attracted or electrolysed something corrosive out of the air or some odd process like that 🤔

@budgiefish Год назад

@@LearnElectronicsRepair I've seen similar things with leaky battery cells, more often than not the corrosion will be along the path of electric potential, even though the actual electrolyte is smothering other tracks :)

@arthurmann578 Год назад

@@budgiefish Funny thing is is that I am repairing an old PC motherboard where this actually happened from the old BIOS battery leaking. There is practically little damage around where the battery leaked, but instead, considerably further down at distant connections where the liquid never reached but still makes contact with the battery. 🤔

@budgiefish Год назад

@@arthurmann578 I think corrosive gases are involved too :)

@ser_olmy Год назад

@@LearnElectronicsRepair I think the "corrosion" is most likely the PCB coating being heated to the boiling point by the current going through the track.

@dang48 Год назад

Wow! When I first saw the damage, I thought that was it for the PCB. Watching you working on it shows there's hope even for the badly mangled ones. Looking forward to seeing part 2 of this repair.

@Beekaert Год назад

Hi Richard. To make removing lead-free solder easier, mix it with low temperature solder (Low meld temp solder). This solder is available in rods of about 10 to 15 cm. Usually the component comes loose so quickly that it falls off the circuit board by itself. Then, of course, clean the holes. Low meld solder is only there to remove components, so NEVER solder components on a board with this solder. Use your leaded solder for this. I've been using this method for quite some time now and it works time after time without destroying the tracks. Give it a try, I'd say good luck. Greetings from Belgium. Andy.

@pippashaw8224 Год назад

that's great Andy, but its expensive. when leaded will do as well.

@khx73 Год назад

Nice work Richard. That's some heavy burn damage!

@nutgone100 Год назад

Did this one live to see another day? It’s like a cliffhanger ending! “How will Richard get past this one?”

@CulinarySpy Год назад

Great video once again Richard - I find my de-soldering gun will tend to clog less if I keep the motor running for half a second after lifting up from the board. It also reduces any residual solder sticking to the pads. I gotta say that PCB layout isn't the smartest bit of work I've ever seen. You can see how much the short has heated the HV track and destroyed the lacquer, increasing the likelihood of track oxidation, climbing track resistance and a viscous cycle of overheating ...

@dkmmhdk Год назад

You may get better results of the vacuum de soldering tool by keeping it active while removing it from the PCB and then waiting a second or two before stopping it may limit the clogging of the tip.

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

I'll happy to give anything a try if it helps. Thank you

@kriswillems5661 Год назад

You accept rather difficult jobs. Many repair shops would just refuse this kind of job.

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

Yeah I'm something of a masochist LOL I do enjoy a challenge though, it's good to explore your own limitations and very satisfying if you get a successful result 🙂

@budgiefish Год назад

@@LearnElectronicsRepair Fully agree. It's not that badly damaged in a way - although I would definitely not run that -95v over that area (cut the existing (bad) traces a good 1/2" away from that burnt bit - the carbonised PCB will have conductivity! - and jumper with a bit of insulated wire). In terms of not accepting a job - I think it's the customer not the repairman that should decide whether the job goes ahead based on value (economic and sentimental), usual caveats attached. Of course some things are simply not feasible to repair (like a NOCO Genius 10 charger which is encapsulated in silicone), and repairman would be well within reason to refuse to repair something hazardous to health too :)

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

@@budgiefish Actually I will isolate and bypass the entire minus 95V track, and in fact the entire charred area in the +/- 17V circuit, part 2 of the repair coming soon, this part was long enough already at 1hr video 😉

Hi Richard. thanks for the another informative video. This kind of fibereglass PCBs also getting somewhat conductive after burned completely.It'll specially effective in high impedance circuit area like here with arround 680k resistors. you may have more consideration on it.

@surgingcircuits6955 Год назад

I have had success using ChipQuick and other low melt solders on multi-pin component removals.

@LarixusSnydes Год назад

I would be very concerned that the carbonised parts of the PCB will be conductive in ways that doesn't match up with the schematic. Very informative video that clearly shows how you process such extensive damage.

@craigcousins6718 Год назад

And I tend to just flood the component with solder and pull it out then clean the holes afterwards hopefully not destroying any pads or tracks!

@Enigma758 Год назад

Very nice repair.

@VeritasEtAequitas Год назад

Idk, he unnecessary scraped the shizz out of the board just guessing at traces instead of peeking under a resistor.

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

@@VeritasEtAequitas I lifted all the resistors that the track went under so I could see it went properly

@izzzzzz6 Год назад

Hi guys. Was there ever a follow up video to this powered mixer repair? One thing that has to be done is to cut out all of the carbonized board because carbon conducts, sometimes this means re-building part of the circuit off of the main board on jumper cables.

@markwarburton8563 Год назад

Richard, I see that you struggled with the IC and had to butcher it to get it off the board. I recently discovered low melt temperature solder that buys time to extract ICs by mixing the low melt with the normal solder and then pull the IC out of the board with almost no effort. I'd be interested in your opinion of this technique.

@Dutch-linux Год назад

with desoldering that connector it would go way easier if you used extra flux with the braid will suck the solder better in to the braid

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

That would also clog up the vacuum desoldering tool way easier as well. I have learnt this by previous experience - if you intend using the vacuum tool do not add additional flux to the joint 😉

@greengrayradio1394 Год назад

Wow, that was a very charred board, guess most would have said NO to this job. Will you be using epoxy to reinforce this area afterwards? When doing work on newer boards it is necessary to use leaded solder to be able to get the plated-through holes clear. Thick leads and small plated through holes with lead-free are a nightmare! I have done work on an HF power amplifier done like this, horrible construction.. When I worked in the industry we were told to cut IC leads and pull them one at a time like you did (no lead-free then) In fact, when using a desoldering tool you can hear when it is blocked, the pump motor 'pitch' rises.. Good luck, it will be good!

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

Actually I'm just going to bypass the whole charred area. The burnt resistors and tracks that connect to the op-amp and LM393 can be soldered directly to +/-17V which I can find at multiple points in that area, and the relevant IC pins. The -95V I will cut the track at either end and will use wire to connect from one end (R38) to the other end (the IDC connector CONN4), bypassing and isolating the entire corroded track. I will do similar with the other corroded track(s) I can see near the CONN4 connector, if they read open circuit or look really bad.

@greengrayradio1394 Год назад

@@LearnElectronicsRepair Yes, probably the easiest and best solution here. D'you know if they had spilled drinks into the board? bad habits..

I do see a little irony in the fact that there's black smoke... on a perfectly good glass fuse. The joys of electronics. Maybe the use of fused resistors would have been handy in this situation. That's about as bad of a burnout as I've seen.

@RickL_was_here Год назад

Soot* Looking forward to part 2.

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

Yeah I get the irony of that, however if you watched the video through, all the evidence indicates that the arcing or burning initially came from the -95V PCB trace that passes underneath the burnt components but is not electrically part of that circuit.

You mentioned that the customer rents out this equipment so he probably has more pieces of this equipment . Would it have been simpler to ask to borrow another piece of this equipment or ask the customer to take a picture of the pcb . Alternatively contact the manufacturer ?

@LearnElectronicsRepair Год назад

Yes that is another option, though I am pretty sure I worked it all out by detective work, partly to show a possible technique for this type of repair. 😉Another subscriber also offered to send me some hi-res pics after the weekend, so there will be a part 2 video soon.
