Man. I have a V1 switch with a bad sd card connector on the motherboard. It's been modded and thought it was going to sit on my shelf forever. I got a few connectors for it, but didn't want to attept repair without knowing the right way to do it. I can't tell you how much watching you video is going to help. Will attempt to do it this week and hopefully get this back up and running!

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

That's awesome man. Glad this video will help you out. The connectors are fairly easy to replace if you heat up from underneath 😁

I've been using a small (3") frying pan to reball for quite some time. Works a peach. Hold the pan, hot air from underneath...flow flow bro.

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

I'd assume it has pretty sweet thermal conductivity since it would be made of aluminium 😁

@MBrulla 2 года назад

@@TheCod3r Exactly. And the Teflon coating...well, that does nothing. Now, if I could find a way to keep solder balls from having static charges that make them jump all over the goddamn place.

@taylorbaldwin1776 2 года назад

Hey Thecod3r. Quick question: how does the video chip in the Nintendo switch Short circuit or breaks as easily? I seen so many switch repairs on your RU-vid channel and others and it seems to be common. Is there a way to prevent the video chip to burn out besides using Nintendo licensed ac adapter and Nintendo licensed dock

@stansteez 2 года назад

Great Job. Do you know by chance the microswitch used in the Xbox one s for turning it on and off? I accidentally ripped it off the last time I wanted to refresh the thermal paste.

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

Sadly not mate I've only ever used donor bosrds to fix them. Sorry

@beverlyhyso7553 Год назад

i need your help, i took my switch back off to clean it and replace the thermal paste and now my sd card does not work can you advise me please?

@hutchings2023 2 года назад

Probably a stupid question, but when you replaced the solder on the chip with leaded the solder pads looked OK, as in nice and seperate solder on each pad. Could you get away with just putting chip on without using balls?

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

Not really a stupid question 😁 you can on some chips, like really small ones such as the MAX17050 fuel guage because the pads are easier to make contact with but with bigger chips like the MAX IC while it's technically possible you'd still need to get the pads the exact size. There's a guy on youtube (I forget his name lol) who can do it on any chip with just a soldering iron which is pretty cool

@MBrulla 2 года назад

@@TheCod3r I'd love to see that because I tried reballing a tristar with just an iron for shits and it did NOT go well.

@marcelusgames 2 года назад

This sd card slot was made to give trouble. In the new Switch Oled they changed that and it got much better.

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

Yeah it definitely gets better in the new model (and in the switch lite too)

@StormsparkPegasus 2 года назад

Reballing must be incredibly nerve wracking. I know how to do it (even though I don't have the tools or workplace necessary), but I don't think I could ever do it. I don't have the kind of patience necessary. Side note: wow that Switch is filthy. I always keep mine clean (granted I don't use the touch screen much, and I keep it docked most of the time, but still).

@brycond809 2 года назад

Can that tool also be used for ps4 southbridges?

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

Yeah I'd say so. I did try it on a southbordge, it hangs over the tool slightly but it did melt the solder

@Alexander_l322 2 года назад

Nice repair, I’ve seen a few switches being sold because their sd card slots don’t work and on the surface it seems like they just need a new sd card slot but in reality they could need the chip replaced which isn’t so easy lol. Btw I tried to sub on twitch using my prime but it looks like I must have used it already on someone else, can’t remember who I don’t use twitch.

@TheCod3r 2 года назад

Yeah some can be easy, others are tricky to figure out but generally if the connector is OK and the module is OK the chip is bad. Thanks for trying to sub on twitch, not a major issue though mate, I appreciate the gesture:)

@Alexander_l322 2 года назад

@@TheCod3r I’ll remember that but to be honest now I’ve got a switch Im not a huge fan so I don’t think I’ll be buying anymore to refurbish. Im more into proper consoles fixing and modding them. No worries mate if I can figure out twitch you’ll see my sub 😃

@Millzieeeee 2 года назад

havent watched yet but reading the headline, usually just replacing the sd card mod fixes the issue, very unlikely it is anything worse than that as its hard to bridge those pins unless they had it open and was unplugging it and replugging it in whilst on , looking forward to see whats up with it as i watch :D
