Those ribbon cables can be a pain, but usually, they're pretty durable when it comes to removing them. There's usually a clamp keeping them in place. If you feel like you have to use that much force to remove it, look closely at the place where it plugs in. I'd recommend not using those pliers, because if they aren't ESD safe, you could easily irreparably damage the board with static. Rather, you should find that a pair of ESD tweezers or a set of 5 inch ESD safe Vampliars should not only be easier to use, but also secure the integrity of the board. About the soldering, you accidentally choose the best. The Hakko is the brand serious technicians use. If you find that you can't remove a component, there's a company called Chip Quick which makes this SMT stuff. It's like solder, but it has a far lower melting point. When mixed into the existing solder, it will melt quicker and it stays melted longer, so you can actually remove the chip before it hardens again. You can then use a roll of copper wire, also very cheap, to attract the melted solder way from the hole. The copper braided wire sops up the solder like a sponge, allowing you to apply new fresh solder after. Next, about those screws. That screwdriver is dog. No getting around it. You'll need a real toolset if you want to remove those screws. They are not very expensive. The saviors from your video, iFixit, makes pretty much the uncontested best sets available without dropping hundreds of dollars. Most of those sets even come with tools like the ESD tweezers and a rubber blackstick made specifically for ribbon cable removal. I'm going to look into that ribbon cable tomorrow. I like to think I'm pretty good at tracking down parts like that. I'll keep you updated if you'd like to reach out personally. This kind of thing makes me invigorated. It's my passion. I find intense joy seeing others feel that same drive and curiosity for tech repair.

For the lack of knowledge you sure learned a hell of a lot rly damn fast.

it would be theoretically possible to get one of the ribbon cables that has extra pins and remove them. ribbon cables are essentially just shielded wires in a neat package so as long as you dont damage the other pins it would be possible

Cvit - Definitely get some PCBs from junk electronics and practice soldering and de-soldiering elements from these boards. This is a wholesale skill that people develop with practice so don't worry about struggling at the start. There are lots of good tutorial videos on YT for how to do this. To check that you soldered a component well just use your multimeter (you don't have to actually power the device on..)

Not sure if someone else commented on it. But there’s a good chance the lasers not working since there’s a solder blob you’ll need to remove. It’s there for anti static protection in shipping. It bridges a circuit and needs to be removed before the laser will work and read the disc. Could also cause the controller not to work maybe?

I always enjoy when someone jumps into something they have never done before with so much enthusiasm. Great video!

As someone who's a fan of the videos Tito from Mach Nacho Productions puts out. In which he's done his fair share of modding old consoles. This was a pleasant change of pace in my book.

Cvit's Bizarre Engineering Adventure. On the serious side, always great to see someone indulging themselves into something new. Especially on thing like this.

this video was oddly satisfying to watch, i suppose the combination of your voice with the explanations and your tought process made for a good comfy video, would not mind seeing more.

This reminds me of the time the disk spinner got so dirty on my old ps1 I used to have, we had to take it apart to deep clean it. So I have have had at least 20% of the pain you where having in this video.

A quick note for you is that you should pick up a little monocular magnifying glass they help a lot when scouring a board for issues.

I really enjoyed this video. Im in the same boat, dont know much about repairing consoles, electronics, soldering, multimeter etc. What got me into doing this stuff is, Im a reseller and when I would go buy stuff at yard sales, a lot of times the consoles would end up not working. So I get upset and toss them and just chalk it up as a bad buy. But then I bought 3 SNES systems and the lady swore up and down they all worked. Took them home and not a single one worked and only one actually powered on, the other 2 didnt even turn on at all, No power, nothing. That is when I said enough is enough. I was going to toss them anyway, so instead I decided to take the time to learn about SNES and what I can do to repair them. After a few days all 3 now work perfectly fine. Two needed a new pico fuse and one needed a new power switch. Since then I dove in to learning how to fix PS2, PS3, GameCube, NES and more. This is one part how helpful the internet can be...

I saw you had some difficulty saudering, and just wanted to let you know that using flux will typically make it much easier to take components off the board along with making saudering it back much easier and cleaner while creating a much better joint in the process

Not what I like the channel for, but I was glued to the screen, and I was constantly thinking of the godforsaken Dino Crisis 3 video... Damn that was a riveting story.

I looked quickly into a writing cable sumitomo-g awm 2896 80c vw 1 for psx model scph-1001 and couldn't find one with 10 lines like yours. I found one with 9 or more than 10 but never exactly 10. If I remember I will come back with an update.

I have the exact saame issue with my PS1 with the power on but no video output. This could possibly be my fix for it as well. I look forward to part 2!
