 All right everybody, how we doing there this Monday wonderful Monday morning? Hey Matt D. Hey Lane staley Hey Brian Harmon. Thanks everybody for showing up today Hey Mega knock on Meg mega anaconda nine six nine. I think I finally got it That's right Hope you all are ready ready to look at a new monitor today. We're gonna look at this lovely Sony PVM right here. That's a 14 L2 and Got a cap kit put together at least a list to start from But that's it's in good working order as you see it right now. Now before I get started I'm gonna tell you just a couple stories from the weekend Because a future here live. It is Monday right at high noon in the eastern standard time. Thank you for joining me a Leave ray no snow mall. Hey Self-elected. Hello Grails hobbies yo now look just in case you're here and you're not a subscriber I did switch over To subscriber only mode. Okay, so if you can't interact in the chat, it's because you're not subscribed And I only put it on a one-minute delay. So if you go and click subscribe 60 seconds later you can come and interact with us in the chat, but that should help Keep any nonsense out because I don't really have a lot of time to monitor the chat When someone comes in and causes some mischief, so we'll preemptively attack them on that Okay, so Stories stories from the weekend. Let's see. Where do we start? So first off? Let's even do a post weekend thing. So this was from my plans for this week. I had a Client send in their Sony BVM D 20 f1 you Which is one of the highest level? BVM four by three CRT's ever made it does 240p all the way up to 1080i and It's a great monitor, but the problem is the client sent it in to get a full refurbished restoration which is a lot of work and The problem was I hooked it up Once I got it delivered from you ship. They did a great job the shipper did but it got here I hooked it up and I right when I turned it on I had a bad feeling about it right at the beginning and it was just a flashing strobing green and Red colors on the tube and I was like, oh brother. So Hey James Boone and Andre Thank you for showing up today. Yeah, so back to this D 20 The tubes flashing so the first thing I do is I click on the hours counter So you can just go into the status under the menu It's two of three. So you just scroll down and it'll tell you a Readout on the hours in this one man. It had tons of hours it had almost a hundred and 40,000 hours on the counter So immediately I Was suspicious of that tube especially the symptoms it was showing and Since it had that many hours on it I opened it up I looked inside and I could see and tell that it's it's like a 96% chance it's the original tube inside the CRT with a hundred forty thousand hours on it and So there's no hope for this tube like it's got I can just tell by turning it on and watching it for a second It's got multiple shorts on it so That stinks for the client But the good thing is is he sent it to me and I know that costs him a lot of money to send it to me but I didn't go ahead and do a full restoration on everything and then Tell him hey, I think I can get it to work because I can look at like some of these things right now like right away and tell if something's if something's trouble and a lot of times I'm starting to learn What to look for as far as bad tubes and things like that. So That is actually going to be I think the next big real production For the channel. So the last one was the Toshiba set review And the next one will be this special undead BVMs and dead BVM tubes Because man, it would be just heartbreaking to spend all these kind of money and realize that the thing's dead and Anyway, I said I have no idea what to do with this Except reach out to save on Pat like four years ago he had a couple of brand new tubes for 20 inch BVMs and Even back then they were in the thousands of dollars for these tubes So I said hey I Talked to Pat quite often. I'll shoot him an email and ask him and he's like the clients like oh I'll be willing to spend, you know a couple thousand dollars for sure and I sent a message to Pat and You got to love save on Pat. So this is the legend save on Pat He's the one I sent the request for I said, hey, do you have any tubes? I know it's a long shot. I got a client that wanted me to ask Do you have any? CRT tubes for a BVM available and God bless him. He sent me a message back that He said Steve I I haven't had any of those things. He's like he said you'd have a better look finding chicken teeth Then fine in a new BVM tube So that like Reaction kind of cut me off Bases for a second because I had to think I was like, what does that mean? Oh my of course a chicken doesn't have teeth So you're never gonna find a chicken's teeth. So Took me a second to catch that what I would consider. I don't know what you consider that. That's like Post World War two humor or something just kidding. So anyway That was a fun little Conversation I had today with Pat and that changed up my plans completely because what I wanted to do originally was service that BVM BVM D series I wanted to service those cards one at a time in here on the bench But I'm not doing that now because again, it's pointless. It's pointless to Put all that labor into it so That means we're working on this one the PVM 14 L2 So we'll get started on that in a second. I'm just let it play here for a minute letting the check get going Hey Grails Hobbies Lay low channel Bobby C. How are you? How are all are you? How are all of you doing today? Thanks for coming in and Yeah, guys if you're if you're coming in do hit the like button if you like the live streams, it will help YouTube send out some notifications to other subscribers that the live stream is going on and maybe some more people come and hang out But otherwise we're good Yeah, so one more little story while things get warmed up here I Live in a What you'd say half College town and a half farm town. So there's a lot of farms in this area there's a lot of food produced in this area a lot of food produced in America comes from this area and it has for a long time. It's been considered the bread basket of America the Shenandoah Valley So that Leaves an interesting dynamic sometimes like the city I live in has changed a lot over the last I don't know 25 30 years of course like any city has but again, so it's got in the city a big school Historic downtown area and then as you go outside of that there's a lot of farms everywhere But that's just to give you like a snapshot of the area this because this I don't want you to be confused and think This is like New York City, San Francisco Or any big town really Besides that can't colleges around here. There's not much else and so it would be farm community if it weren't for that so I Had an interaction this weekend. I went to the local grocery store and the one closest to me is a supermarket called food lion So if you've ever heard of food lion shout out in the chat for anybody who's shopped at the food lion So just a normal not anything's fancy. Definitely not. This is more of middle-lower income style grocery store and I go in there. I get a couple of items from produce because it's so close to my house I get a lot of things there short-term notice But I went to the checkout line and this the thing I like about this grocery store It's the only one I go to anymore that doesn't have a self checkout So there's no way to check yourself out like a Person scanning yourself. I hate doing that news flash like I'm terrible at it. I hate doing it. I Don't like the responsibility of it. So to me. It's actually more old school for me to go in there and still have a cashier so That's maybe the one thing that's big difference about this as compared to like Matt D was asking Kroger's Kroger's does still have Check cashiers, but they also everyone. I've been to haves a Self checkout these have no self-checkouts at all. So that's that's interesting But anyway, I get my stuff. I'm in the checkout line the guy in front of me Is like Acting real goofy like swinging around doing stuff I look over and He's got a vitamin water, right just a normal drink and he's giving it To the cashier and the cashier is probably I don't know 25 to 30 age range male Young man seems well-spoken. So he's sitting there checking out this guy, you know and He's like, so yeah, it's Saturday night or it's not Saturday night. It's like Saturday 5 p.m so He's like, hey, how you doing tonight? This is the cashier talking. How are you doing tonight? How's it going to Saturday and the guy goes? Man, I'm not gonna lie. Oh I just did a little meth right before I came in here And So I heard him say this right and so the first thing I did was take a step back about a foot, right and I'm starting to look him up and down and I realize he's like filthy like he's wearing all black Okay, hood sweatshirt Full long black black pants black shoes and it's just like he's been rolling around in asphalt or something and He So after he says that I just look at the cashier and I'm like, oh my gosh, you know And again, I step back and he's like, oh, okay, man. Cool. Whatever dude, you know, and then he's like, yeah Yeah, man, you like to party and Would you like to come party and I'm like what the and the guy's like no man. I'm good He's like you don't do anything and I swear he's doing this with this guy and he's a no man I'm good, but you do whatever you want to do. That's what the We cashier said and then the guy turns around and looks at me and And he looks at me and asked me if I want to party and I didn't say a dang word to him. I sat there stone-faced Like that and just stared at him and after it was long enough for him to get uncomfortable He he just turned around and said, oh, I'm just kidding. I was just joking and scurried off through the parking lot and I just looked at the cashier after him. I was like, man, that's crazy. I was like, you know Hey Saturday night, I guess the weirdos are out tonight and he started laughing and saying, oh, you know I'm used to it and I was like, dang. It's got to be crazy now being just a cashier in a grocery store and So yeah, that that all happened Other interesting facts Yeah, I was wondering what kind of party I was missing out on but so I Will give the guy the benefit of the doubt and one thing I was wearing my My purple windbreaker so I probably looked like a crazy Methhead I was wearing literally a track suit like a 90s Trapper keeper track suit Into this grocery store because it's right down the street. So I'm sure I looked like I wanted to party, you know it so Anyway, he took off I did not get his number I let him go like I said, I didn't want to get too close, man I had kids in the house. I don't want him being exposed To vapors they're exposed to enough being around CRT's and So that was a fun interaction I had never seen that doesn't really happen didn't happen normally in this town, but hey things are changing all over so he did buy a water a vitamin water and He paid with a $50 bill And so while he was saying all these things the poor cashier was trying to cash out the $50 bill in in cash from the From the intoxicated individuals Cash and change All right Hopefully that story will get the chat nice and warmed up for for everybody coming in and just wanting to hang out I'm not gonna be Doing too much on the well, let me tell you what I've got for my time here I've got about an hour and a half to work on this and the and I've ready to go as far as we can go in an hour and a half So I'm gonna cut this off now this TV or monitor Excuse me, and then we're gonna start to take it apart. I'll show you a little bit of what's different in This compared to the other ones we've worked on it is a different build out. It's Sony's final CRT PVM so let's go ahead and Switch around and we'll Start to take this thing Apart I have already removed the shell That's one thing Definitely unplug the power Get all that out of the way. All right, so let's move the camera a little bit and That's Turn a little more light on and we'll swing this thing around so you can look at the back So we start to Take this thing apart. So we're gonna start by removing our neck board. Okay Then we should be able to disconnect cables from our sideboard which is in this case our Bay so this is one of the unique features of this L2 is it has a Bay a slot bay that you can add Other input cards in here to add expansion features on the monitor so That should not need to that should not need to be removed for us to do this servicing. We're just gonna be removing the Neck board and then the main chassis and this will probably come with it the input board so That's what we're gonna Take out first and to get the neck board out first thing we do Just disconnects there There's another disconnection point here Do not have to Discharge this monitor. You don't have to discharge this to remove the neck board but you do need a Phillips head screwdriver Because there is a ring right here Let me see if I can get closer to that ring for you this That plastic ring right there. You have to undo that screw Right there. Oh There we go, sorry about that shaky Sorry about that shaky view there for a second. Yeah, I'm sure Brutus is walking around somewhere back here So we got to remove that screw and then we can Slide this neck board off We don't remove the screw actually we just loosen it a little bit now this piece of plastic here It most of the time will break so don't be surprised if it just falls apart It gets stuck So this time we may just have to bond it to the tape here Pretty good try to break it free a little bit. There we go. Okay See if we can get it now. Oh, there we go That might be at first. It actually didn't fall apart. It probably will before I get done working on it. There we go What happens is it gets hot and bond binds to this? masking tape right here and After 20 years, of course, it's it almost melts together. Just get rid of these ground Tables I can with my fingers. So there we have one one board out and It leaves us a couple of options. You know, let's connect that point. All right Just put this with this for right now and now we're gonna Get in here and remove this board Well, we got to remove another screw to do that and we need to remove some screws off the main board here, too Should release that. Okay That's good. Now. We just need to get our input board out Sure that nothing else is going to be Again, there's a so we can already move it some though. We'll get ready here Discharge it in a second. It's a ground Cable got another ground cable right here that we should probably Just remove Remove it Scoot out of there Let it stay with the tube Some things we don't want to move Let's see what I have to do the other one too. This is just extra There we go, so we've got What I like to do is I like to remove all the Cables at the net or this board because there's only three of them at the input board Right because these connects from the input board Back here to the communication card up here So you don't you just do that. So you don't have to worry about This connects in anything from this The next thing we're concerned about or just making sure every ground Is released Like there's one right here, there's a big ground right here I have to Take the screw out of just to get it out and what does this one connect to? This connects back to the main frame so not Or back to the card slot, so we'll just put it back in there for now And try to remember that we have to reconnect to that point Afterwards put it back together So Just an example of how many Spots everything's good on this side Okay, good there Do this connect the yoke of course, so that's gotta be out of the way And there's some cables up front but before we get to those let's go ahead and Discharge this so Trying to get a good angle here. Let me let me adjust the camera and I will get it back into focus here Sorry about that. All right. Sorry about that. Let me get this camera focused up here for a second and And Then we will move over to See should we do some I apologize. I probably should just see if it can run. There we go. Sorry about that All right so yeah, we're gonna discharge this one now so we can see that good and See if we can Anything put me I'll probably stand right there so you can see me move that post you can see two views here simultaneous views That's pretty cool Okay, let's go closer So what I'm trying There's Brutus back there. I'm just gonna discharge this okay Good spot is this metal shielding You want to just flip on there with your discharge to where you can do that now It's gonna go right off of there now when I Want to discharge this I can't touch any of the metal on This frame where it's pointless, you know, then it'll just shock me if it if it discharges at all So I'm gonna go in here And by see we're gonna go right there. Okay? Let's go in Well close we can get maybe we'll go a little closer now So if anything happens you can see it Doubt it will happen it never happens on PBM so don't get Too excited because it's a rarity, but you never know. That's why we always do it So the important thing you do is just click the metal of the anode cap as well as The ring on the tube Do you see there's nothing Then you can push the rain. There's an anode cap. Let me show you how that work You push that together the metal right there and it will release And get it in there good sticking on the other side, so There we go These older or the L series are kind of pain, but it's just a clamp that springs together You push it together like that and it will And then it expands into the anode ring up here, which is just a tiny little cylinder right there See that just a little cylinder So you could tap that and then on this monitor. It's not really any danger like it was on the Chiba that one was a Real bear Okay That's a fun little Demonstration All right, so now we can pull the board. Let me get Everything resituated We'll pull this board out and Take a look at the circuit board So we can service it of course we have our neck board right here Then I'll fix the lighting up in two so we just get it all out of here so that Be ready to use the overhead camera Okay, let's kick it over there a little bit And this should just start to slide the whole tray. I'm going to lift this up Yeah, and if we look towards the front There's a bunch of little connections up here That you have to disconnect and that's pretty self-explanatory just Table connections. I don't want to come out Sometimes they get stuck. There's not like a pen holding it Problem is they'll just fly out and smack your hand Not it Not a lot. This one's not got two minutes Three more tables one two Two three. Okay, that's it right there. There we go Pull board assemblies out All right, that's it right there see So there we go and get back here and look at our Board so that's how you get the 14L2 apart and Unlike the other monitors that we've worked on recently like the pvm A m-series Those ones have a power supply on the side of them where you can see this the Slot for your cards. That's where you would see a That's where you would normally see a power supply on the older pvms So this was a redesign That means the power stuff is right here in this main board just like the deflection Yeah, thank you about cab. Don't forget to like here. Let me do this You go over here to this camera. We'll get it Looking at our first our main board where we're going to be doing a lot of work and There we go This is our g board our g board. So let me put it around so Look at it like this. You see it says g right here the sony g board And I am not certain where the capacitors are on this kit. Here's our kit list Um, I don't know it looks like I've done this one before and there were some alterations that needed to be made On the seaboard specifically Um, yeah I don't know why this was a kit that may may have had some errors on it because the caps over on this are 250 Volt 47 micro farads, but on the list they're different At least the ones on the list that I got and this was funny enough an old save on pat cap kit list. So What we're gonna do is we're gonna go through it and we're gonna do this we're gonna do that I don't think I have these kits or these caps. I'm sorry So we'll test the caps to make sure they're okay And uh, we'll service the neck board and then we'll service this main board. So let's start by Getting our Well, let's why don't we start it off with the main board? I was going to start with the neck board Because that's kind of easy, but let's go for the harder one first. So So We still have some things to do here Because if you just I've actually seen somebody tear this board apart by improperly Trying to Get it off the plastic. So we got to make sure We do this correctly and that's just going to start by removing Some screws they're phillips head screws. They have to be removed And the main board here one on this side one on this side And there will be more I think and Let's look up here None on the fly back sometimes the fly backs will have a screw in them that might be now There's one more in the middle for sure. So there's one right here in the center Now that might be all of them And most of the time you're not going to have issues with this pvm just yet, you know, we're still at the Time when this pvm should be good Should be good still like you don't have to worry too much about caps usually with the L series just just yet because they're Kind of the mid 2000s. We need to get this ground Okay, we're right here free It's like always something here Okay There we go So we can get Let's get this Out of here now our input board Well, interesting Okay There we go I'm sure why I didn't want to come with the plastic However, I will tell you, you know the the solder The solder that was used in this era kind of concerns me It's never the capacitors. It's more the solder. I'm worried about hey master safer Thanks for coming Uh, but this is like the back of the input board Okay, you can see it's a dual side board. There are capacitors in there thankfully that's pretty low heat and Hopefully those capacitors last a long time because if you have trouble with them you literally have to Just about remove all the shielding and everything on here to get to them That's a pain in the neck very difficult one of the most difficult things you could do But thankfully these boards are solid and Let's see here Now there's my screw. I knew that was somewhere And I believe this board should be ready to come out for the tray But To be safe well It's slowly yeah, it's ready. There we go If you do things right it should just come clean off This is our plastic tray. We can remove this and our input board out of the way also Thanks again for coming everybody. If you're coming in late, we are working on A circuit board here for the 14 l2 This is the primary circuit board Also known as the g board. It has deflection parts as well as power parts in it Most of the picture processing And things is done on the other card. We saw there's some things done on this board I believe I don't know everything about it, but enough to make me dangerous And to learn how to serve them so what we want to do What we want to do here is we want to find the capacitors on this list and mark them And then we're going to go in and reflow solder on them And then we'll remove them um So everything above the bottom four Is on our main board now. It's not a lot of caps if you look at that. That's one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve it's not a big cap kit and so Let's go in here and see if we can't find these 1500 is the ones i'm looking for now if I wanted to save myself some agony I could probably refer to the service manual and find the capacitors um in the circuit board maps In the back of the monitor or in the back of the uh service manual but Instead we're going to look through it now. There is some audio stuff on this board too. It looks like Okay So we need 15 11 we need some 15s. We need 1505, 08, 11 and 14 So here's 08 right here It's 05 anywhere near that. That's a nine um 15 11 and 15 14 and 05 Oh my goodness, holy moly check this one out. How terrible is this one? Goodness gracious. This one is 1505 looks to be right here under this heat sink Down here where my finger is you can barely see the cap you see that Right there where my fingernails touching That is the capacitor Goodness, okay, 1505 We found it So we've got 05 and 08 located 11 and 14 15 11 and 15 14. Hmm. I've got a bad feeling they're going to be the same There's two capacitors under there. They are not the right value though That's a good thing. I don't want to change those if I don't have to Huh, well, let's see 15 11 Right here. These are all over the place see that There's 15 11. Hey, thank you s and k nostalgia I have two Sony Trinitron 27 inches CRTs. I recap the first. Good job Those are always fun to work on. Sonys are worth working on. They're fun. Even consumer sets most of the time I'm really well built Thank you for the super chat Okay, so we have to find 15 14 now And if I was a betting man, I'd bet it's near a hot spot 15 17 is the big one No, where are you 15 13? That's not one This is This is okay. Not what the one we're looking for is 15 14 And then we can look at some other ones, but I'd really like to find 15 14 Gosh, there's some over here These are 35s this area Wow 650s All right. Well, let's see what we've got We have to be able to find some of these 3508 is this big one Okay, that's on our list 35 10 Is Right there. That's on our list 15 76 15 53 Here's 15 53 and 15 76 right there. Good. We found those Thanks again. I said K nostalgia. Yeah, nothing is worse than recapping those Duos really anything that has SMD components that are bad that leak are awful And those have lots of them Very bad experience. Thank you again for the super chat Um, I'm still looking for 15 14 on this board But I found a lot of others and now we can find maybe the 600s to 606 and 624 Um, if I look again, I'm trying to look like around The heat sinks mostly but also It should be noticeably Big capacitors 611 606 606 624 here's 606 right here Is that all over 619? Don't need that 606 was the one I just got 624 up here 624 We have 538 and 540 Well, here's 540 and 15 13 gosh, I'm still looking for 15 14 May have to pull out the manual to find that one um 540 got it We need 538 So 540 is here 543 31 39. So they're all over like You would think this would be 38, but it's not somewhere else Um, these are not it 645 615 See what are these over here 655 656 646 634 619 goodness gracious 6 what is this? Okay, we're looking for 538 where are you 538? Those are all 600s 600s 600s Don't need the 600s. This is like a power block right up here 600 probably is power cap mostly And I'm not seeing those other ones like not at all. We might just start removing them and maybe we'll run into the part 538 no, it seems we already got those It's 546 538 530 I'm already got 538 down here All right, everybody. Maybe this one's not 1514 cool. That one actually is not marked Or correctly. It's on this other side says 1514. So that is the one cool. We found that one just 538 and it's a 25 volt 100 micro farad cap There's 539 And it's a 25 volt 100 I do not see 538 Go through all of them Just to make sure these are 15s. See they're not 15s 15s 645 644 35s. These are three fives over here. There are a couple of those 600s up in here Sorry, my mic's touching my shoulder Here we go My microphone was over there probably touching against my shoulder if it was clipping or anything. I apologize Here we go. Fixed it. Um, yeah, I'm not seeing that one 538 at all So Hopefully we come across it Or we'll just change 539 and maybe it was a miss It was a misprint Hey icky. Lovey. William. Hey, Raceroni. Yeah, there's a really weird like no sequencing on this one icky. Lovely. William Good luck today. You two are working on a trinitron. So what I'm gonna do Excuse me. What I'm gonna do is we're gonna reflow some solder on here Um On 11 of them And we'll reflow some solder. Let me get the solder And I need to Maybe start By giving a little bit more of a bird's eye view on this point Well, I don't hit you camera There we go. Let's start up here at this top one And we can double check that we got the right parts 624 Which is this top capacitor here? Oh, yeah And this is just gonna make it so much easier when we go in and try to remove The caps on this board. It also gives us a chance to really Uh Maintain or properly maintain this board by Going in here and refilling soldering a couple spots that look bad But at the same time like When we reflow solder on the points before we pull the caps gives the board a good chance of not becoming damage Thank you SNK Nostalgia for a two dollar super chat Inspired to you're inspired to fix Your toshiba 1080i 480 p crt now. Wow Yeah, you should fix it. That's crazy Hey demo Kirby Good to see you Yeah, I saw your arcade project seems like it's coming along. Well, that's good These are always fun So I see some spots. Um as I said that just have Really poor solder Looking I mean this is again uh preventative So if I see some spots I don't want to go through and reflow the entire board really, but I will do some spots if it looks like they need it While I'm sitting here Okay, that's our first one. We're going to kind of work our way through this area first. So the next one is 606 right? Yes. See 606 which should be This area I think this is it Right here So we'll just reflow some solder on that one And see this is a good example too Check out. I'll show you in a second if it can get a close view of it. It'll be nice. We'll see So this one If we get real close in there Um, let me show you right here Where my finger is if you can still see it Yeah, that looks pretty good There's a resistor Right in between the points there that Is super super tiny surface mount resistor And that's just another reason you got to be super careful working on these Because if you knock something like that off you will have a lot of trouble and Those are sometimes connected to the legs of the capacitors Those are two Uh, nothing over in this area nothing in this area. We do have The one by the heatsink. So let's get this one Um, 1505 right 1505. Yeah So 1505 Is over here. Just follow the soldering iron. It's getting you close. There we go and Sorry, if I had like some really awesome tech And I could get you even closer in there I would But we are limited Okay Thankfully the camera doesn't I it's a cheap camera. I mean not cheap. It's like I think it was over 100 bucks, but whenever I bought it But it uh, it seems to do well at least At least me pulling it in and out like that it doesn't mess it up picture doesn't get messed up And that there's a lot of cameras that struggle with weird things Okay, that's another one. That's our capacitor that's hidden under here Thanks again s and k nostalgia for the two dollars super chat solder works Resurrected a last blade neo geocart That's great. Yeah soldering reflowing solder This can be very important excellent job. Thank you for the super chat again And next we'll look at so we've got this one um There's one up here. We will Reflow it and then we can do this side, which is the rest of the capacitors So over here we're looking at 1511, which is this one down here So Let's go ahead solder it Now when I get to the neck board, I'm going to re solder a lot of things like the crt socket We'll re solder it and the transistors The resistors things like that. There's a couple things on there. We will Absolutely be for sure reflowing solder on All right, that's our Uh Caps on this side now the rest of them Are down on this end of the board So we've got two over here two here three here Is that right two four seven? And yeah four five on the other side. Okay So we just need to do first off the two on this end. We've got 1511. Well, that's the one I already did 1511 okay that's the 540 Right here gosh, I can hear I can hear the little pug Hey, Tony. Thanks for the super chat dollar 99 just wanted to drop in and say hi. Thank you, Tony. Good to see you Tony eskibar. I appreciate the super chat We're just working on a 14 l2 today. Hope you're doing well And that Covers those two capacitors. So now we can move on to this one 1508 1576 1508 there we go Some solder on that one And 1576 is pretty close by there's 75 70 68 Which are we looking? Up at the top Of course, it's the one up here. Right this one This is about as like new tech as I can get for working on stuff once it gets past this era. It started getting too many Components on the surface mount that are small Things are problems are probably more related on newer stuff to Design or issues with like heat build up on ic's and custom chips. There's a lot of things like that in the newer crt's the last era That can be troublesome because you can't source replacements you can source replacements a lot of the analog monitors and all their parts but After that it got a little bit more difficult. All right, we've got three more over here since one two three four Three more. So we've got those two 3508 and 3510 Just 3508 right here. I wonder if they were trying to use lead. I mean this this solder is not great either That's like I said It's what's probably going to ultimately be the trouble with this generation All right So it's 3510 right there. Why is it safe? Oh, there it is. Okay. I thought I didn't say it's right here Right under my nose. There we go. All right. I think we have one more to reflow Hey, thanks for the big super chat s and k nostalgia. Thank you for showing me how to keep up pvm crt's and many more crt's Great. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you for the super chat. That's what That's what I hope to be able to do is help people keep their stuff alive that a lot of people don't want to do and It's hard to get no matter where you are in the world to get somebody to work on it unless you happen to live in the same area as myself or like the four other People that do this normally if you're unless you're in our area You have a hard time finding good places to do this and The good thing about This whole system with youtube and stuff is that I can You know archive videos like this and hey one day you decide you want to try to get involved and Trying to restore something This video will always be here to help People find their way That was our last capacitor to reflow So we're gonna get Mississippi that's cool. That's It's not too far Not too close but not too far In virginia we used to go through missus or I've been through mississippi a few times My way to Louisiana to the family there All right, we're gonna start removing capacitors here okay This is one of them 540 I've got to plug up my These otterer now So we're gonna go ahead and plug up Go ahead and plug up the Great sounds clogged Anybody who tuned in to the last I saw How much fun we had with the hacko fr 301 I'm gonna heat it up here Take a second to take a break actually Guys, I will be back in one minute. I think brutus needs to go to the restroom. So as that heats up I will turn on some music and um I will be right back and We'll get this Board and all these caps desodered. All right. Thank you. Thank you for waiting there for a second Brutus definitely had to go to the bathroom and I can't Can't just make them wait it out. Let's grab the little snack But yeah, brutus is um For those of you that don't know brutus is 15 years old So Yeah Can't hold his can't hold his stuff forever Now let's see That sounds heated up now. Thankfully Now I needed to turn him back down. Yeah, he definitely can't wait And I'll be cleaning up a big mess If I just let him Sit there And ignore him and since he's gotten old he'll do like weird stuff like he'll uh If he does go to the bathroom now For some reason in the house, it's like Usually in the uh It's usually in the his bed and it's almost like he's throwing a tantrum And and that's the way he does it because he doesn't have anywhere else to sit Because but his bed so He gets angry. I'll just go pee in his bed and he's like, well, you got to clean my bed and now I don't have Anything to sit in and then he just paces around the house and drives you crazy all right first cap is out And um Let's move on to cap number two I'm over here my handy little tray I will be moving We'll be moving this here circuit board and camera around a lot just to try to Give you a better view if I can Uh, this is the one we just removed right there 540 looks clean see that good clean Contacts right there That's what you're looking for and then we're gonna get this one right here now next Just gonna have to make sure I don't hit the camera lens and catch it on fire 1511 Just giving it the old wiggle. Oh that one did not do so well I'm trying to bend the leg a little bit That did good that bent really nicely maybe I can get it without adding more solder There we go You doggy popping right out How's that for chicken tooth It's the closest we're getting to a chicken tooth right here 160 Volts 4.7 micro farads and One down One other one down Now this is a uh Yeah, that hole doesn't look very good. So I'm actually gonna have to reflow The solder on it anyway I tried to avoid it. It didn't matter Some of these it's a negative and Which is typical. It's always a big ground plate Now it's nice and clean Sorry No, that's a further out of view There we go right there up here Are the two we've removed so far and Let's go Right here And move this one that this one's going to be tricky. I can already tell Okay, we got one leg out on this one and We're gonna have to reflow solder on the negative lead, of course And hopefully get us good Grab grab a hold of hold tough I keep missing grabbing the wrong capacitor Thanks again. That's a K nostalgia turn it up today. Yeah, we don't need a glue gun We got we don't need the stinking glue guns. We've got our FR to deal with now this one is being a fun one, right? Sometimes you just got to keep on keeping on like if I could just get the leg loose and maybe I could just pull This out. I don't want to ruin anything At the same time They get to budge some let's see what the top looks like Gosh, it's a stubborn one. That's for sure. Sometimes Might just have to get up here at top. I'm sure the view is not very good for this one, but This guy is First our first troublesome capacitor right here It's always the negative plates on the lboards so Let's just Reflow the solder on the negative lead again. All right. There we go. So just heating up. I was able to get the leg of the capacitor out. Thank goodness We just need to Move all the solder now Is this one's going to be real fun to deal with See if you look at this side, let me show you Here's the issue All right, and I'm I'm trying to maintain like And not just you know rush through this. I want you to see this in case you come across it like this You don't have to worry if it takes multiple times to do it because it's common like this big area That looks solid is all ground plate And that's the problem the heat's dissipating up top before Before it gets hot enough to heat up the solder that's on the top of the board so you have to do a game of hopefully Getting it hot enough to get it out Of course, that doesn't sound good. So it's not like it's not really one to Cooperate at in the slightest today No, I mean, I'm just gonna have to keep redoing it. Sorry everybody Just gonna have to keep redoing it if you left for a little bit. You probably missed me just working on one negative lead here for 10 minutes And I'm gonna just remain calm, you know Because getting getting upset it's not gonna do anything Whoa, did it get nice and hot? I don't think it did it. Oh Yes, okay, we got it like can you see it right there We actually got the solder out. Hey grail. Thanks for the $10 super chat. That's awesome Thank you very much got to get back to work But wanted to shoot you a super chat and say thank you for all the cool stuff you share with the community Hey, thanks a lot. I'm glad you appreciate it. Thank you very much. I appreciate the super chat Hey Belmont welcome welcome on your lunch break. We're just working on a 14 l 2 here Got the main board out pulling caps and Of course, just like anything you try to do on live television You get problems, right? So it's always best to just take your time remain patient You'll eventually get them out just like we got we just eventually got that out. It's clean We didn't damage anything and everything's good and we can move on now To the next capacitor, which is a big one up here 1576 and then we have these three Even though it's taking time It's good practice, you know, we're getting we're getting good experience so now since we know how bad the negative lines are we're going to start in the positive leg and and Make sure we clear that one off first which we have You can just see how much longer it takes to heat up to wiggle Man, this is like Folks, it's not going to be easy on us. It's not at all going to be easy on us And that's okay. This is Hey, this is why you have to have a The art of being able to work on this stuff, you know, you can't just nobody can work on it You have to know the tricks. You have to know to be able to do that for some reason Wonderful and we got all our solder through the hole right there So that's good Nothing no damage right here trying to get in there. Oh, yeah, look at that. I could hopefully Well, it's too much light Let me see if I can get that to focus at all Let's see right here See we got it out cleanly Right there right there very nice. Okay Moving on You got to think about this. This is why on a board like this. You're not gonna read you have to be nuts to Are really dedicated to like recap the entire thing That's why we're relying right now for this era. We are relying on these good parts and cap kits Uh to subsidize the parts that are going bad And hopefully we can get a couple more decades of use out of this before we have to go in and start really recapping every board on this one See what I'm doing is I'm heating up the solder But I could tell it doesn't matter because the leg Of the capacitor is not moving. Oh, there it is Finally moves, but it doesn't like move and Well, it loses a bunch of its heat. It's super super Super punk move Let's see making me Try to slip my fingers. It's like, oh, you're gonna slip and you're gonna ruin this board is what I want you to do I hate doing it. I hate doing it that way. I absolutely despise Doing it that way. Uh, did we get through that one? You got to check the light. No, we didn't Oh, thanks for super chat again s and k nostalgia buy more crts. That's what you do, huh? Well, I do that too, but And then I try to fix the ones I buy and restore them but Good one Oh, goodness. Let's just try to do that Oh You're being so cool to me Cool or cruel. What am I trying to say here cruel to be kind? You got to be cruel to be kind This is cruelty This is I think this is what happens kind of when there's a disconnect between between like engineering a problem and the practicality of repairing that problem because you really These ground plates come on They got to be that obnoxiously big I still can't get that I can't believe it. I cannot get that. Um I can't get that hot enough I can't get it hot enough unreal Think of that. I had to stick it up in the top hole To get through and we did it. We got through enough. Absolutely good All right, good. Yeah, this is Thankfully just a few capacitors just a few Just a few to go. So we've got these two right here. Hopefully this is positive Positive leg comes out easy peasy, right? Because it's just a small little uh Small little lead there and small little that's not the right one right above it trace So those those are the two Let's see goodness It doesn't really matter. It seems like every single one of them If we had one Come out like a normal Capacitor would I don't think we've had one single Capacitor just cleanly come out. Nope. This one's not going to either It's got a big old clump of solder attached to its top This is why this job like if you get this job done you get half the parts But the same bill for hours as you would for a M series or you know a 54 53 something like that because Those you can get the caps in and out like no no problem As far as these guys are concerned you're Wasting your time working overtime There we go. We got that one enough enough. I mean It still won't come all the way clean. It still will not come all the way clean That is it just Makes me want to smack somebody With that kind of board design doesn't dissipate dissipate heat that or dissipate heat dissipates heat too well Too well is the problem It's overly designed well instead of Getting frustrated for being designed too good 1514 over here Oh you you little devil you 1514 It's like a crusty old Looks like it looks like a crusty old sock that you'd find under like a teenage boys bedroom under his bed and you'd be totally Grossed out by it. That's about what this solder looks like Not my love sock Come on get your love sock out my circuit board, dude I don't know what i'm gonna do but that one that's attached to the heat sink that one's never gonna want to come out I'm gonna do that one last so I can scream bloody murder Hey, thanks again esokina selja for another two dollars super chat there Says my local electronics Part store is gone. Look at that. This had the stupid It's almost gone. Yeah, I'm sure it is this had the stupid leg Come out of the capacitor So it's so hot it dissipates heat so well. It can't even the damn capacitor can't handle it The capacitors can't handle it, but the damn board will never burn Could survive a fucking fire. Sorry about that language and trying not to get heated too much That's it My word. There we go. Goodness gracious Ridiculous just ridiculous. Oh, what a surprise. You got a crusty old butt up on the top side, too Yeah, you like that don't you oh you don't like that. How? Oh How how How do you not How is that like I don't understand the physical chemical Compense Where every time I would get a pvm on stream it's gonna be The most difficult job there we go So Let's trick a blow torch to this jerk Flame thrower the flame thrower to this thing and See if that fixes the geometry We've got three count them three capacitors left That's we're gonna save our Climax for the end. We're gonna go with these other two Capacitors that are up here. We have this one should be easy. This one should be easy, but you know You know That's our solder board. Okay. Well, this is the time where steve gets to clean Steve gets to clean the fr 301 because it's smoking and it's decided Doesn't want to work anymore And that means That Not only is the solder bad on the 14 l2 circuit board, but when it flies into my solder sucker it Proceeds to turn into even bigger crap Then as it then it started so then you get whole issue where The desoldering tool will not suck Literally, but it sucks figuratively then when it doesn't suck it sucks for not sucking So I mean, it's not even it's got itself clogged up like such a little Thanks That's not even any caps I'm not really understanding this this This solder sucker is uh Like every Every like 15 caps now it's it's clogging itself. That's not that's not effective It's definitely not effective and that's not good. Oh smoke it. How about that? Look at that stupid thing Yeah, definitely fell on the ground and rolled around in the carpet per second Not all there's just a Industrial rug under here. It's not like a carpet Gosh for a piece of trash Okay, we'll sit that down for a second. I'm gonna have to get this part to work See you Belmont. Thanks for stopping by on your electric break. Now it's sucking. There we go. Oh, it's sucking. All right, it's suck It's definitely sucking And you know, let this get nice and hot again. Take a little second to relax because it's definitely Like These are the patience testers of EVMs Again, I think we've said that a lot today Here we go Well, it's sucking right and like to try to burn that circuit board that time But we got it out and out clean somehow That's good All right Back in business one more here and then we're gonna get our hard one out We're gonna have to bust out the hard one. I'm not sure what Cole's up there barking at My dogs. They just love to bark at old people And children like what is up with that nonsense? The two least threatening things oh 14 l2 I really despise you In the way The way you do the things you do Those little things you do, you know I just don't understand you I just don't Just don't understand the ultimate version of Operation here The kids board game we got that one out finally And holes clean right there There's the capacitor No worries. My father made lead bullets way back nice s and k That bullets Lead baby I'm sure you can hear him barking in the background all right Where's Oh, we still I didn't grab this one actually I forgot one more up here Oh, yeah, it was one that I had only gotten one leg out of I forgot about the second leg up here on this and of course Of course, you don't want to come right out. You just don't you gotta hang on for your dear life there sally and Don't let anybody tell you different. Okay Don't let anybody tell you that you You should change you'll be you and Why shouldn't anybody want a new fresh capacitor in here? See just deal with the old one All right, you're out You're out mr. Rubicon You're out of the picture But the pain the pain remains because I can see a big plate Come on, baby. Get out of there. Get out of that hole and no And no All right, there we go. Hey everybody Last capacitor here Dogs do need to come help me All right guys, we're gonna get through All these caps out and then that's pretty much probably gonna be it. I'll I'll stop them in after that and talk because I have a two o'clock deadline today and We're getting getting awfully close to it This one actually came out easy. Thank goodness the hardest one, right? Thank you the hardest for last sometimes and This one came out of good excellent excellent 538 I still never found c5 38 so I'm not sure if it's just me or if it's Marked wrong or if it's c5 39 then I need to take out because there is no c5 38 Because I don't see a c5 30. Oh wait I do see c5 38. Isn't that one up here? I thought it was c5 30, but it's c5 38. I bet 25 but 100. Yep. Yep. This is our last one. I actually did find the very last one And we're fortunate because it's actually at the top of the board here. So Right up here. So it should be It shouldn't be too. Yes. That's the right one. It shouldn't be too hard to get out Of course, it has a huge absolutely ginormous Um brown plate right here. It's on the edge Which makes it infinitely more heat tolerant like it I mean, I couldn't even get the leg to wiggle that time doing that But if I do it on this look how quick the wiggle is on this Positive leg That was a piece of cake It's insane. You're not going to come out of there that easy, right? Oh, you have a little reputation uphold. Look at you. You just gave right up All right Well, that is a good thing actually We're able to find every one of the caps on this board that's in the cap list And now I'll be able to go in and change them And install some new ones. So How much time we got? We got about 15 minutes I'll continue to work. Maybe I can Uh get Oh didn't want to do that what I did earlier Maybe I can get uh Some of these caps put in Hang in there folks. Hang in there with me. We'll turn our solver sucker off Get it out of the way Install a couple of these fresh caps How about we start with the hardest so we remove the hardest last They gots 1505 It's a 50 volt 100 Here's our replacement 1505 Yes Longer Just gotta squeeze it down in there, you know, okay So our legs there There we go There we go, baby We're gonna do the positive leg again because again it will Be better to start on that leg since we know the negative legs always need more heat. We can trim these down Oh, man Thank you again SNK nostalgia for another five dollar super chat. I don't know where my first mod was a region switch on the neogio CD 12 years old in 96. That's awesome. I wish I even knew what the neo geocd was in 96 I had No concept of The neo geocd when I was a kid unfortunately just never had seen it I do remember seeing neo geocd of course arcades and AES systems sometimes. I mean that even that itself Was an extreme rarity It might be like one setup at the Nice high-end video game store like the entire area All right C 1505 Our hardest one Is installed That's great 15 14 over here. Let's get that one in That's a 250 4.7 And 15 11 is a 250 4.7 which is on the other side. So let's just go ahead and do both of those 15 11 is down here Actually, let's use our tool. Well, I thought I had that tool ready. There it is Pardon me. So we're going to use our little capacitor leg vendor tool And clip our legs down with it and What it's going to do is it's going to give us this cool little shape See that see our parts legs how it's got like uh see that shape now and that way I'm going to take this and stick it down in here shirts oriented the right way and You just like sit it like that and it's It's in there you can push it down further if you want or just leave it like that And now we will solder it on in I'm breaking the rules. I'm going negatively first this time 15 11 There we go. See and it sits above the board just like all the others do And how it originally did Now we'll say it's a little bent Okay Perfect Same thing. We'll do it again here. We'll do it again here right here Uh because here it's the right way same thing flip it around Cut the other leg There we go Now we have our cool legs Uh for 15 11 now 15 14 up here And make sure you got it oriented the right direction Sorry I had to pull it out of the And review for a second. This one's a little difficult for my fingers to fit down in I have to get a little bit help here from Mr Mr. Klein's pliers here if I can do it if I can do it. I probably should have left these legs longer because Sorry, I'm gonna move the microphone I probably should have left these legs longer so that they would easily fit in these holes There we go There we go make sure that's the right orientation it is Don't use glue the only rule Now I'll show you the only time you can use glue and go away with it is if uh If the glue is just there to secure Liring or something not Not as actually anything Should be completely removable too like This for example isn't bad, but it's even our tv. Hey edward There we go Yeah, if you've been watching I just got to use it. I just showed everybody I used it a couple times there It's great. Yeah, edward turned me on to the Uh pliers or clips whatever you want to call them Where you bent that bends the legs? I think it's fun and it's great for certain applications And then there's some applications where I still decide To leave the legs on and do it the old-fashioned way, but it's definitely helpful I like it. I like the way it all looks and works So yeah, I've been enjoying it all right guys Maybe one more capacitor One more you got 15 11 15 14 And 15 0 5 changed We got The 11 15 14 and 15 0 5 How about we go for 25 220 Oops, sorry about that 1508 which one was 1508 is right here in the middle of board I'm gonna use No, since this is a bigger capacitor I'm gonna stick this one straight in the board right here And not use the not use the little clip or the Not use the tool on this one edward You're going for just the um want to make sure we have that down against the board and I don't know sometimes it depends on the scenario A lot of times One of us Oh, thank you. That's a k nostalgia huge $20 super chat man. You're too cool. Too kind Whoa Let's see that we went in there good. There we go We've got that one in right there You know, wait Who's this the top four? Let's see One of you number five four zero a 50 volt 100 because it's right on the edge to There we go Let's do this one over here Top just like a mad scramble to see how many of these I can do in the next two minutes I just this I got one more maybe one one more. Let's get up here Let's get in there. I'm just gracious. It's just too Oh Just needs so much heat to get that thing going that is crazy crazy how much heat you got to put on that Negative lead there. All right, there we go Well, we have to two o'clock yet 156. We still got two more minutes three more minutes It's going Right, so that's five four zero Take it off the list of ones we need to do 1576 is right here. That's another 50 volt 100 If I had a better board where I could put in more caps at once and not really do it like this I would definitely use the other tool that I have where the capacitors because it's just easier And you can do more at once. However with this board and how Just finicky it is I'm going to be using both methods negative legs are just Begging for Begging for like 900 degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit on the iron and I'm not going above 750. Sorry It's not going to do it and the positive legs like yo, I'm hot. I'm hot. I'm ready Lay off. All right, there we go 1576 is on And done 1553 pretty close 1553 right here can definitely kill stuff. It's too much heat. Yeah, if you put This in came nostalgia if you put too much heat on something you can definitely ruin it. Here we are up top Up top and trim this one hit tip clean. There we go 15 Well, let's try to see if we can't get that to push down a little bit more. It looks like it's Sticking out from the board too high. Excellent. Actually did get it to come down All right, cool. Excellent There we go. No troubles. No troubles 1553 we've got plenty of room for our cable to connect in there too. So another one off the list Now we are Going to get the two 3000 series 3508 is a big one And then 3510 is what 25 volt 100 So not so big Let's get these two out of the way Get them done this one right here Why not? Let's let's go for two. It's time. Let's see if we can get it done That's what we're doing And again, I'm going to start on the positive leg legs There we go Now we can trim them blow the solder on them one more time So awesome Excellent There we go. All right Thanks, B Sanchez. Thanks for coming and hanging out. See you later I don't think I'll have time obviously to finish this whole kit Today we'll we'll be lucky to get through What we've done so far and actually 538 already changed it. Nope by 38s up top 25 volt 100 we're actually going to get through Uh installing the cap kit, but that's probably going to be it But I'm moving at a good pace now. This is better than way we started And something we could definitely do is come in and finish up servicing on the neck board Uh, if we come up looking at the neck board Then we can get the neck board serviced and get The uh like caliber we can get it back together and test it and run through some of the service menu for calibration stuff And tests which is nice so if If you're into that thing we can do that on the next stream I'll just Come back and we'll get back to work on it till we're all the way done with it kind of the way we did with the 844 q Because I don't really plan to do a full probably Retro tech episode on um This job probably not But it's more appropriate for streaming. I feel like Hey, thank you s and k nostalgia. You're pretty good too. It says I'm pretty good All right, we got two more. I can't believe it two more they are Over here in the 600 block, which is a power block 606 and 624 606 is a 50 volt 100 and 606 24 is a 50 volt 220 624 is outside. That's that's going to be five I'm going to stick this one in here 606 and The big one up here six 24 The big one right there Get the legs bent up so It doesn't fall out when we flip it over Yes, yes, yes excellent excellent last one Right here. All right Oh, yeah Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. There we go I'm gonna go through here And well, I'll leave it this way. I just want to make sure that every cap I installed Is the right direction. So now I'll take a Marker and make sure by tacking it Checking that Everyone that I changed is the right direction One two three four One's right One under here right. We are I mean that's awesome. Great stuff everybody This one this one Change one over here this one This one I believe that's it. This one Let's let's count them one two Sorry for the terrible camera angle of that segment This whole segment let me get it out a little bit more Okay, we've got one two three four five six seven eight nine 10 11 and then 12 up here for 538. They're all the right direction. We're not missing any capacitors In the kit list.
