Episode 54 Basic Component Faultfinding with a Multimeter

Nice info, thanks :)

Hey that was lekker my Broe! ........... Sweet as a NUT.............. Cheers .......... ears!!!!!!!!! ............ Shot

My guy your videos are really good pls keep them coming

i like the presentation Evione..looking forward to see more videos.

Thanks bor

So a transistor is basically a diode but it can split off to another or multiple components where a diode is just 1 circuit?

Hi how do i get in contact with you

how to test varsistor

Could you do something on checking dc voltage. Bit confused with it. Would gratefully be appreciated. Thanks bud

Thank you!

Sorry this would make more sense to a novice if the cct symbol was drawn next to the meter and explained as a part of the process

I have a electric shaver that doesnt charge anymore , i dont think its bcuz the battery is dead, i think its a technical issue that send the power directly to the motor instead of the battery
And when its pluged into outlet, the motor starts but gradually it gets more intense, so much that i think it might damage the motor and i get it out of the outlet
Any help? Do u have a video about it ? Or can u tell me what should i search to find the solution ?

How does the low impedance mode discharge the cap? I had issues where i worked on a PSU and measured 0.6v and still got a shock, not sure why maybe i measured it wrong?, I put my black probe on a random ground however, rather than the capacitors ground pin, could that be why i got a wrong reading?

This is a SOLID breakdown, thanks!

cannot see shit due to bad lighting

Analog multimeters are better for this purpose, even if they are inaccurate, and old. Better response and you can test, how the device behaves. Analog multimeters are also ideal to revive locked devices or components. I could restart the charging of a locked ZTE phone, by tapping the port and batt connections with a multimeter, and it started charging. Digital multimeters are better for everything else.

For process control techs using a Fluke, an easy fault to find is that you left the dial on milliAmps and then connected 120 VAC. Yeh, ya might wanna buy at least of those little custom fuses.

wrong method and technic, just talking only,

I do a LOT 9f diagnosis using my thermal imaging camera.. when components fial they are generally very very hot on the pcb.. OR the power stops there ( you can see it In thermal spectrum ) .. great video though. :)

Great video. Thanks very much!!

can you test mosfets directly on board or dose it have to be removed?

dude......that is so cool your video in the O-scope!!!! That's great!!!

This was extremely helpful. thank you! I had received a board from a glass top stove that supposedly didn't work. fortunately all the components on the board tested out perfect. But unfortunately these people had German roaches and all the roach crap was fouling the whole system up. I clean all the feces off of the board and it worked perfectly. So people if you have a roach problem and your appliances don't work, that might be the problem. Because roach crap really does screw the whole system up. LOL

Interesting, I've never seen anyone test electrical components on carpet.

thank you very much sir, one of the best videos I nave seen for novice who wants to diagnose.

Well Done Thanks a lot

👍👍

Wooya; I want an oscilloscope like the one at the start of this video to watch videos's on; LOL

Great video! You have a nice voice.

Good way to test .

How to measure the mA of a power supply adaptor. Eg. 9v guitar pedal adaptor. ?

I have the exact same oscilloscope and this feels weird xD

Very simple explanations and extremely helpful.Really helped in my repairs at home.

Good explanation. Now I can repair my TV😄

Thanks for sharing.

Will you make up your fuckkk mind if your doing this for beginners or for people with knowledge of this. I am trying to learn about this and everyone is the same, rambling and mumbling. Keep it simple, speak slow, show faulty components as well as working ones, I learned nothing from this but got a headache.

What are you shorting the capacitor out with?

Great info and presentation. Super helpful, thanks so much.

Thanks you for your channel

For the transistor. Is the base always on the left and collecter on the middle?

Thank you!!!!

This is very helpful!

Lukka! Thanks man!🤘🏽🇿🇦

Good video, well explained. Thanks

Thanks alot

👍👍👍👍

Thanks mate.. refreshing info for me

A good guide, but one issue...overuse of the word "basically".
