    REQUEST A TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT

    What to send for a useful first review

    Before shipping anything, send the exact model, the observed behavior, relevant history and clear photographs of the board or equipment.

    Send console model/revision, exact light or beep behavior, display symptoms, liquid/impact history, previous work and whether the full console is available.

    Email is best for detailed cases and photographs. WhatsApp is available for quick fit questions.

    FAQ

    Questions about this service

    Should I send the whole console?

    Usually yes. It allows power, thermal, display and load validation after the board work.

    Do you replace HDMI ports?

    Yes when the connector or surrounding circuitry is the confirmed fault. We also check filters, protection and HDMI IC paths.

    Can you repair a console after a failed reflow?

    It can be assessed, but uncontrolled heat may warp the board or damage pads and can reduce repair viability.
