I Bought the First Broken Xbox Series S on eBay - Let's FIX It! It clearly has been taken apart before and also clearly has a faulty HDMI port. The port has to be fixed before I can really test anything else and with no Xbox Series S HDMI ports currently for sale, I'm going to have to get creative with this fix!

What do you think of my "fix"?
you could've done a custom Flex PCB with a HDMI Connector as a Fix, you even have JLCPCB as sponsor :D
Nice fix Steve! Really impressed!!!!
Depending on the HDMI cable you have, it may fit without any modufication...
I have a problem. My mom a40 wont charge or turn on and i need help
i have a digital edition ps5 that is not showing on tv. Can you fix to me? And how how?
I love how he goes from having hair, to not having hair during the sponsor ad, to having hair again all while wearing the same tshirt LOL
he's tricking us lol
@@2002THEBOY His videos looks very weird,It's sure he hides things in the editing of his videos
I repaired my old backpack because of your videos. I mean it isnt something technical but the idea/spirit of repairing stuff totally get me because of your videos. 😊
I love hearing stuff like this. Great work!
6:43 The best part of Steve's videos, the PERFECT amount of thermal paste.
LMAO he know he trolling people.
Lol!
Im gonna guess at the original owner didn’t even get the case off, which with how that T8 looked is a good job haha!
Ya, probably not.
@@Tronicsfix Ha ha. As always great work Steve!
See my first thought was maybe they did, realised they can't get the correct hdmi port, so put it back together using some kind of electric screwdriver and over tightened it until it stripped.
@@MrJaiimez I bet this CZcamsr strips their screws a lot then since he uses an electric screwdriver sometimes
ye
You are probably the most dedicated CZcamsr I know. All those subs and you still take the time to reply.
Wish I had to time reply to everyone but I try to respond to some
@@Tronicsfix , yes. So far, you and another one that I don't remember are the only youtubers that have liked and answered one of my comments. You are kind , humble, dedicated and competent.
When you realise that the only moving part in the XSS is the fan.
Ha, ha...true!
Wait what ? Isn't that the case always ? 🤔
Oh the blu-ray drive
@@AliYassinToma and on all models til the series there was a spinning HDD. The series and ps5 have on board SSD
I remember when the louder part of console was the disc drive. So whe now whe calculated the quality of a gaming console on hiw silent is the fan.
@@eliprovencher4542 Ouch hdd? last time i had one was in 2012
Thanks to you I managed to fix my friends xbox one which was turning off randomly. It was a faulty power supply and it got replaced. Now it's working like nothing happened. Love your videos!
Nice work!
Man, i really want a neighbor like him in the next door.
it makes me really angry that they don't make these parts readily available, I really hope the right to repair movement really gains traction.... donated to louis rossman, and happy to fight the cause. good job Steve :)
louis rossman should see this video 😁
you know that Microsoft and Sony have 24 month warranty, at least in Europe, so no need to repair anything yourself yet
I think that it's awesome the way that Steve is always moving forward and trying to fix newer devices and being willing to learn as he goes.
Hello Steve
I‘m from Germany. I love to watch your videos. Please never ever stop to repair things and do so great videos.
Best wishes.
Glad you like them!
Come visit

The perfect amount of hairpiece adhesive...😉
Lol!
Lockdown haircut, naughty ;)
HAHAHAHAHA
LOL I can't stop laughing, JLCPCB is so good it blows your mind... or at least your hair
Haha, best comment 🤣
you'd think that it would be impossible to break a Series S unless if you intentionally meant to break it, but alas, here we are
Ha, ha...yep!
You would think it would apps be hard to break a ps5
@@WillFuI not that hard... it just falling off a table can cause the hdmi port to be badly damaged.
@@fabianweber6937 If you put your console in a place that's possible... That person's a special kind of idiot.
you obviously dont have children. They destroy anything and literally everything
You definitely inspired me to get to know electrictronics and stuff! I'll be modding 3ds's with capture boards here shortly and that'll involve some careful soldering, it's going to be fun regardless of what happens! 😀
Dude, I keep finding myself watching you for hours while I play some games. I have started repairing and modding consoles and controllers again, but what you do is at a whole different level. I love the level of detail man! Very impressive, I am taking notes and slowly building my tools up. Thanks for your awesome work!
honestly I'm 13 , and was very interested in console repair and Steve is my role model , great and useful information and tips , kinda funny and cool, I'm currently don't have much knowledge in the console repair realm but none the less want to be the part of that community , great work Mr Steve hope you can make more great and useful content like this.
Godspeed mate, and always remember to take all precautions in dealing in electronics, their power supplies, and capacitors.
@@MiguelBaptista1981 I'll sure will sir
A trick I was taught with screws with stripped heads, was to use a thin rubber band. Place the rubber band on the screw tip and then you should be able to grip a little better to remove damaged screw head.
You truly are the master of making variable length connectors and promo hair cuts work
I love the look of that console.
It's really not bad.
@@Tronicsfix particularly I like the compact engineering a lot. That fan is gigantic! Nothing against the ps5 It's just... You can get great thermals out of anything if it's big enough ;D
@@kylerclarke2689 I agree. The ps5 still looks like a console on the inside in terms of the hardware setup, these new x-boxs look more like small factor PCs.
Ikr
@@coylezo yes! Huge fan of sff PC's and creatively fitting a lot of power into a small package.
Dude! You are awesome! Each episode is compelling.
" *sigh* That's not how I wanted that to go, but oh well". Gave me a good laugh.
Extremely relatable. ...good lord, is that relatable.
ooops wrong hole?
One year later and I still enjoy this guy vids! That's what happens when ur a great and interesting content creator. Let's get up to a ONE MILLION subscribers my man! 🤛
Wow this was very cool to watch, keep it up with the new Xbox console repair videos! Would love to see more/ different repairs!
I enjoy your videos man, keep it up, I also try to fix my electronic devices, it doesn't always go good but when it does that feeling is incredible
Great vid it’s really cool to see all the mother boards and parts that go into different things
Wow what a way to make good use of old part, kudos to you TronicFix!
Nice work Steve. I think you do your best in this case. It's always complicated find the right solution if you don't have the right replace part. Have a nice day!
Thanks 👍
Wait, this video was uploaded 2 hours ago, how does it say this comment was from a day ago?!
@@Cat.Gaming If you look closely at the purple badge they have, you have your answer.
@@Cat.Gaming become a member and enjoy the benefits just like him
Hahahah I have agree, that was a boss level workaround fix right there
Steve nice video always entertaining watching you fix the console
Keep up the work
Jesus, you worked it so well it's actually incredible. Great job Steve!
I love watching these videos, even though I have no clue what you are talking about.
Also are you selling the items you fix?
I'm so amazed by your skills. I would love to learn everything you do.
You can do it! Just takes practice
That was super impressive! Nicely done! 👏🏻
Great video Steve, the horror of stripped screws is very familiar to me, I two stripped Y-Type screws in an Iphone XS when I tried to repair it, had to use my Dremel tool to drill through them.
Your videos are kind of relaxing 😆
Great job as always 👍. I would watch a future video of this when the correct parts become available
I wouldn't mind seeing you do a deep dive and attempt to fix that faulty HDMI port. Or at least a teardown to figure out exactly what went wrong with it (it looked split open).
Watched your max videos, Only man in the world extra extra happy with the perfect amount of thermal paste 🙂
This video is the perfect representation of the word "resourceful", you just fixed something that was not supposed to be fixable yet. Excellent!!
Awesome video as always. I think you may find some HDMI cable where the head is a little bit longer than normal.
Bro your videos are awesome, as an xbox fan this is an amazing and great fix thanks.
Hey Steve great as always i see nothing wrong with the pins when you were putting on the hdmi port
Man I love your channel. Great job finding a part that worked! So do you resell that thing with a note telling shoppers they'll have to mangle their HDMI connector to use it?
Great job Steve! First successful fix of the new Xbox Series S!! World record right there.
I really like these type of fixes, aesthetically not perfect, but functionally perfect. And since you used the part you already had, you didn't create extra carbon footprint by order new parts!
Love your work it’s helped me fix systems keep up the great work!
Nice work around with the hdmi port! It's does seem to be easier to sacrifice soft plastic than hard plastic.
Plus, I can always go back and solder in a new port once I can get one that is made for this console. If I shaved off the plastic case I'd have to replace the case.
Nice fix! Sometimes you just have to use what you have on hand but that’s no different than using a bodge wire. If it works it works. The only other concern I see is it looked like that hdmi port didn’t have support legs that fit the through hole.
Got to love how you can literally use a part from 20 years ago into something today and it still works
So shaving the cable shroud makes your connector look bigger...........this video brought to you by Manscaped :P
The cable got 7-zipped XD
It's amazing how easy it seems to open and repair this console.
Awesome work. Love learning along with your vids
Glad you like them!
Bro keep up the good work I love ur videos
Nice work man, you are good fixing things
Thanks 👍
Great to see another console fixed. Good job.
I guess with the alien HDMI port it would have made sense to clean the GND holes and align the port with a little pushing to the side. Solder the small Pins first. The GND only after... It looked like that way you wouldn’t have had to bend each pin...
Love these videos Steve, keep going!
More to come!
Another great video, I love repair videos and people like yourself and Louis Rossmann that work hard to help those who appreciate the craft.
Thanks! Love his videos too!
And Steve's soldering is better that what Louis can do, "in my opinion" :)
I love your videos Steve
You deserve more subs
nice simple fix Steve well done :)
Super creative fix! Ive had to some jank fixes like that myself every so often. Hopefully right to repair makes it through congress. Im tired of this proprietary parts hording. Xerox is also one of the worst.
Cant wait to see more!
9:06 I felt like I was who repaired the Xbox SS. Excellent video, as always
Northridge fix has the correct hdmi ports in stock. Nice job getting it back up and running.
You make looks like it is easy to do repairs. Keep going 😁👍
You should really do a video with the retro future. My two favorite repair channels
Good Job as always! Don't suppose you were thinking of selling that Xbox were you? ;)
The amount of thermal paste was perfect!
You have inspired me to start a repair buisness from home, im in wales uk thank you for the videos
Awesome fix Steve!
I love my series S. Interesting to see the internals and a repair on one.
My original ps4 recently started overheating, even after a basic cleaning. Because of your videos, I had the balls to completely disassemble it and replace the dried out thermal paste. Works like new again. I would have never attempted that a year ago.
These are always interesting!
So glad you're enjoying them!
Another great fix love your videos mate
Im so happy that an Original Xbox One HDMI Port worked in the Xbox Series S, That makes me feel better with my 8 year old original Xbox One :D
Keep fixing everything you can!
It's time we stick it to companies HARD!
Well done!
Great Work Steve, great inspiration.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great job man. !!! Awesome work great video to.
Love the video, I'm assuming the HDMI wasn't a 2.1 Port unless I'm mistaken?
I love the little Spyderco!
I love these videos and seeing if you can fix it
So glad you're enjoying them! They're usually fun to make.
Even tough i dont do any of this these videos are still a banger to watch
Great Repair as always 😉
Great work man.
Pretty nice soldering, only thing I like to do (because OCD) is after I get it soldered, I put flux and hit each one with my iron and drag it down so I get nice smooth solder joints with no blobs
It was real repairing, thanks bro
And again a superb Video from Steve...
Why is that so?
Master of the perfect amount of Thermalpaste.
Maybe you should have a talk with Louis Rossmann about his right to repair work 🙂
Yes please
Have you ever made, or considered making, a video or series about how to solder? I do phone repair and we don't offer soldering services, I personally have some basic soldering experience but no micro soldering. I love how you explain things and was just curious.
Yep! I have an entire soldering course...and the first course is free! www.gameconsolerepairschool.com
You’re incredibly good at soldering, wow
Man, you're good at this. Moving those little pins over while soldering them is kind of a pain. You maybe could have reheated the big socket pins, and pressed the entire socket over to that side to make the data pins line up better.
1:55 I want to say you kinda inspired me to fix an old Nintendo DS game card I found recently. Years ago I dropped it with my Nintendo DS into the ocean.
I love the way sponsor segment is from future Steve.
I've watched enough of this guys videos, finally got subscribed,idk why I do this lol
Great ideal right there buddy and nice fix too 👍
Great video! One query with this HDMI port change does the Series S have a 2.1 HDMI port on it or does that only apply to the cable?
Amazing repair
9M BABY!!!! really cool video man UPLOAD MORE PLEASE@!!!!
I'd love to but some of my videos take days (or even a week or more) to create so I can only make so many.
@@Tronicsfix Okay
Incredible work
Thanks!
Great video. Thanks 👍
So inspiring! Thank you.
I love you videos, somehow didn't know your name was Steve!
