    Need Help Sourcing HDMI connector for GPU

    I have an MSI Ventus 3X OC nVIDIA RTX 3070 with a damaged HDMI connector. The display is recognized but no display output due to the damaged right-side of the connector. I've got the board apart and the back of the HDMI connector is stamped Astron. The problem is that their site has 30 pages of HDMI type A connectors (http://astron.com.tw/eng/product.php?idt=1&pid=3&cid=1). Does anyone know how to determine which part numbers are compatible and then where to source them?




    Also, I have some experience soldering but this will probably be the most challenging task I've tackled so far. I don't think it's out of my range though. I have a hot air station, solder wick, flux and solder, though I don't think I have the right type of flux or solder. If anyone can point me in the right direction on either the part or the supplies I'm going to need, I would be grateful.

    Can you post pics of the backside and pin area of the connector ?

        I have calipers so if you need specific measurements, I can provide those.

          Based on my search on the Astron page, it's either one of these two. I'm just going by the pictures though.

            Based on the outside-to-outside measurement of the spring (17.52mm) it's this one http://astron.com.tw/pdf/369FA19-0N058D-H.pdf (Astron 369FA19-0N058D-H). If I'm not wrong, the two questions that spawn from that are 1. Are there any others that are compatible? and 2. Where can I buy one? I doubt Astron just sells individual connectors.

              One way is to search in Ali Express, and compare the pics with yours. Some sellers also include dimensions on the pics.

              Other possibility would be Digikey / Mouser

                OK, I'll start digging. Are the pin mappings between the mating pins and the board pins pretty standard or do I need to pay attention to which pins on the connector map to which pins on the board? I looked at Digikey and Mouser but neither of them carry Astron parts that I could find. I'm OK with another brand, I just need to figure out whether it's a matter of matching the dimensions or if I also need to pay close attention to the pin mappings.

                  This one seems to have pretty identical dimensions (based on the drawing on mouser), but it doesn't have the EMI spring. Should that matter? https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail...JtTAz3Bw%3D%3D

                      No LCD image after connector replacement – lifted components and damaged resistor (Nintendo Switch Lite HDH-CPU-02)
                      by Tomylee
                      Hi everyone,

                      Sorry for the person who’s going to read all this !
                      I'm on a Nintendo Switch Lite, motherboard HDH-CPU-02.

                      While replacing the left joystick, I had to remove the motherboard to access the connector underneath. When I lifted the LCD connector latch, it broke (the plastic had become brittle over time), so I replaced the entire connector.

                      During the desoldering of the LCD connector using hot air, three small components located just below the connector (likely 0402 capacitors) came off and remained stuck to the bottom of the...

                      Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
                      by acedogblast
                      This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

                      There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

                      Marantz SR4003 AVR HDMI board issue, seeking for help
                      by aliougm
                      I have problem with my AVR(Marantz SR4003) HDMI board issue. I connect to my TV but screen color distorted,see attached picture.

                      Connection as below:
                      Set-top box HDMI output >AVR 3 HDMI input/one HDMI output>HDTV HDMI port
                      If I bypassed AVR then HDTV screen color be good.

                      I take out HDMI board from AVR and check services manual the schematic shown the HDMI signals path:
                      3 HDMI input port > SIL9185 chip(HDMI switch) > SIL9033 chip(HDMI receiver) > SIL9030 chip(HDMI transmitter) > HDMI output port

                      I replaced all...

                      Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                      by Tynan Dill
                      I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                      Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                      I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                      The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                      With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                      Assuming...

                      Problem

                      This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....
