I think the pop could have been a bug crawling across some pins or pads, shorted them and the bug exploded. Not done watching, but that's my prediction
why can't I find anything on that chip? LC125 7CK AJNE
I think it's neat that you went to the trouble of looking up the dead beetle and showing the ID in the video.

N64 are prone to have bridge around the chips look for short circuit
To think that little board, out us through childhood. Amazing.
Sending well wishes for your health mate
Did you not power it on with your own PSU before replacing the chip? his PSU might have gone pop! Also why not just use a little low melt solder to remove the Chip 🙂
That looked reqlly disgusting..
Had aml leukemia at 37. Coming up on my 5 year cure date in a week. Had bone marrow transplant. You got this Steve. Praying for you and family.
This brings back memories when i picked up a nintendo 64 with 3 controllers that wasn't working, console powered on but game carts were not working, only paid $40-$50 for it, Got it home and gave the game cart slot a good clean up, Chucked a game in and hey presto got a working n64 for half the price of what they were selling for
the timing of this video is perfect, i was just handed an n64 to repair
4:14 the top left pin 3 from left looks bad may need to be replaced right side 4th pin left needs to be checked those pins could be the cause of a pop if they are fried or hit by a light strike ah those ol zelda days😂
How do I give or sell a console to you? I have an Xbox One on the side that’s broken
slides the exo skeleton into pocket and pats it goodluck
Where are the kids playing on that console before? They are have kids now.
I've bought a lot of n64's ebay and fb marketplace and seen very very disgusting machine inside and out…..🤮
I have soldered prototype PCB's by hand for over 30 years. I use charcoal lighter fluid to clean the PCB's. It dissolves and loosens the flux 1000 times better than rubbing alcohol. Leaves the PCB spotless.
How much would you charge to replace all the caps in my N64?
Hey Steve, just saying thoughts and prayers for you and yours! Looking forward to the healed post….
N64 is in a weird spot. Many N64 games don't emulate well. But there haven't been many, if really any, successful clone consoles yet. Like, if you want to play NES or SNES or Gensis or really anything 16bit and earlier, you have a GLUT of options that are almost all better than original hardware. From emulation to clone FPGA consoles. But PS1/N64 era don't have those options yet. Emulation or original hardware are pretty much it.
And frankly, running ANYTHING over composite on a modern TV looks like absolute TRASH.
I gotta wonder if one of those bugs caused a trace to bridge and blow out?
Hey men . Ilove all your work. Always watching your vids. Get well soon brother
How could you tell that chip was bad? Couldn’t spot anything on the video. Trying to learn. Thanks!
did you even trun it on before disassembling it?
Get well soon!
Sometimes all it takes is just a clean. I had a n64 similar to that one. Took it apart and it was just nasty. Cleaned up the board and it worked just fine.
5:18 Nice XD
$200 for a HDMI repair!? Man… I'm glad you're sharing these videos. Ye sure, for some people they'd be paying around that just for the equipment, but there's other ways to use such equipment like finding a maker space or asking someone who's a hobbyist in electronics.
I bought my n64 off fb marketplace a few years ago for $50, had to get an av cable but it worked and the controlller it came with had a tight stick.
great fix! so satisfying to see it working again
That doesn't looked like it got too warm, that's melted.
But why leave the rest of the console dirty?

Me: i knew it!
Power supply is one of the most common failure points on N64s. First thing to check, every time. While the inside was definitely a little crusty, it's much more likely that the "pop" from the former owner was the PSU dying. The later-replaced chip looked fine after the quick clean-up.
Thanks!
$200 for hdmi repair ?
Make a new catch phrase Steve " perfect amount of liquid metal".
I bet you can’t fix a force feedback steering wheel (for games)
