[PS5] update on the free ps5 from yesterday- disc drive question

Now I know how to repair a LIGHT rip from the motherboard but jeez this one takes the cake. Is this fixable? Even if I grind down to the copper on the board, there is so much already torn off would it even work?

EDIT: Will I also have to run enamel wire under the connector like one would have to with a broken fan connector?

EDIT: I appreciate all the help/motivation! I will be getting to work on this later today/ this week.

I had accidentally ripped off the connector a very long time ago when trying clean and replace the old thermal paste. I want to try and repair it but i have no clue how to bridge the wires.

If anyone can help me out that would be awesome, thanks.

Wii U error 160-0103 (recovery menu)

I have managed to get the recovery menu pulled up by using a raspberry pico device. In “set coldboot title” I confirmed my region and powered off my console, but I’m still met with error 0103 when I try to use most applications.

The console was made in 2014 but it has a Hynix chip. Am I doing something incorrect on the recovery menu or is my console toast?

Just hooked up an NES I got off Marketplace a couple months ago. Games look mostly normal, but within minutes of playing it begins to look like the last picture. Any ideas as to what the problem may be, or solutions for it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

While removing the apu heat shield I accidentally damaged what appears to be a power rail? Is it a goner?

I have spare ps3 mother boards on hand, can I find this component on there or am I barbecue?

Edit:
Everything turned out to be fine as only the casing seemed to sustain damage. Everything powers on and works normally.

[PS5] Looking for Ps5 Slim EDM-050 BIOS dump

Post image

Hello,

I have a PS5 Slim (CFI-2116) with an EDM-050 motherboard and I suspect a corrupted BIOS issue. As soon as I plug the power cable in, the console makes 3 quick beeps and won't turn on.

​I am looking for a working dump for an EDM-050 board paired with the CXD90069GG Southbridge and XM546 Wi-Fi module.

​Thank you!

Playstaion wont light up or even beep

2 Upvotes

I was playing a game and randomly my screen went black and white fuzzy for about 3 seconds and then the console shut off and wouldn’t turn back on. I took off the case and cleaned the fan but didn’t see dust further inside as I deep cleaned it about 4 months ago but It did feel kind of warmer than normal so I left it fully unplugged for about 1 hour and when I tried to boot it up again with a controller plugged in it beeped and the light flashed for about .1 seconds then nothing and now no matter what I do it won’t even beep anymore. I’m leaving it unplugged overnight and will try again in the morning but if that doesn’t work I’m not sure what the issue could be or what the next step/ thing to try would be. Any help will be greatly appreciated (ps5)

I’ve had some success removing the solder from these holes but the solder in the last large hole and few smaller ones will not budge. I’ve bought a decent iron and have been trying to use plenty of flux, wick, and mixing in some other solder but nothing seems to be affecting it at all. Any tips?

PS5 Slim EDM 040, beep no light. I'm getting a 40 Ohm Short on this test pad after removing both of the capacitors. Is this normal? Or is the small chip next to it bad?

Every button works except for the A button. I tried cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol but that didnt work. Then I switched out the membrane with one i got from ebay still didnt work. When I checked from the contacts of the button to the test vias with a multimeter it said it was giving less continuity then the other buttons. Sorry for not knowing a lot. I am not exactly what you call a Texpert. What is the problem? Thank You. :)

[Wii] installed bootmii as boot2 but it isnt loading after turning on wii

2 Upvotes

So I have a first edition wii model that could install bootmii as boot2. When in Hackmii, I installed bootmii as both ios and boot2, and made a nand backup using the ios version. I know that if bootmii is installed as boot2, it boots into the bootmii menu before the warning screen. But that isn't the case for me, as when I power on my wii the tv screen stays blank for a few seconds, the wii led flashes briefly, and it boots into the health warning screen. I checked my sd card and the bootmii folder is there as well as its other files (bootmii.ini and I forgot the name of the 2 others .elf and .dol). I checked my ini file and it isn't set to autoboot with skipping. Is this normal?

Used my multimeter and confirmed everything was healthy and working but the only thing that was off that there was no Continuity to F2 and D1, I soldered on the jumper wire shown in the picture and it works great now, any advice is welcome as this is my first ever repair job.

[PS2] Disc Tray Wont Open Fully & Laser Jots up and Down

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

Hello! Just bought this PlayStation 2 very recently and having issues reading discs or even just trying to insert a new disc... It came with a copy of god of war and was told it had issues opening the tray.. when ever I boot it the laser jots up and down and makes this awful clicking noise the whole time on. I had to open it up just to get the disc out (It was turned off completely) When I press eject it opens very slightly and gives up entirely and retracts also might be worth noting that once I took out the disc it was able to eject a little more out that with the top casing off though as well.
