This would mean no more stress.
I'm intruiged as to why it would only work for eight months, why wasn't the fix "permanent"?
- mattius 5y agoThe position in which you placed the console was a separate issue that caused the same failure. The stress from the mounting bracket was a bigger factor. I tried looking for a good visual example and this article describes the issue, and fix, pretty well. https://www.instructables.com/Fix-the-Red-Ring-of-Deathwithout-towels/ https://www.instructables.com/Fix-the-Red-Ring-of-Deathwitho... The fix would only last so long because once a ball grid array looses connections there is no real fix. It takes very special equipment to create those connections in the first place. If you search "ball grid array soldering" on YouTube you'll see what I'm talking about. They're a real pain to try to fix once broken.
