Canada’s Premier ASIC Repair Service — 2,500+ Miners Repaired Since 2016

That miner sitting dead on your shelf is not garbage. It is a machine that was built to hash, and with the right hands on it, it will hash again. D-Central Technologies has been repairing ASIC miners since 2016 — before most repair shops even existed. We have brought over 2,500 miners back from the dead with a 95%+ success rate, from beat-up Antminer S9s to the latest S21 XPs and everything in between.

We are not a faceless repair depot. We are Bitcoin Mining Hackers — a team of technicians in Laval, Quebec who believe every miner deserves a second life. We do chip-level diagnostics, board-level micro-soldering, and full system rebuilds. We treat every unit that comes through our door like it is our own, because we are miners too. Decentralization does not work if miners end up in landfills every time a chip blows.

Ready to get your miner back online? Submit a repair request or email [email protected] with your miner model, symptoms, and photos if available. We will get back to you within 24 hours with next steps.


What We Repair

We service virtually every ASIC miner on the market. If it hashes, we can fix it. Below is a comprehensive list organized by manufacturer — and every model links to its own dedicated repair page with model-specific diagnostic information, common failure patterns, and repair details.

Bitmain / Antminer

Bitmain’s Antminer line is the most widely deployed ASIC platform in the world, and it is what we see the most of on our repair bench. From the legendary S9 that started home mining to the current-generation S21, we have repaired thousands of Antminer units across every generation and algorithm.

IceRiver

IceRiver is the leading manufacturer of Kaspa (KAS) mining hardware, and their KS-series machines are now the most widely deployed kHeavyHash ASIC miners in the world. As these devices age past warranty and the secondary market grows, repair demand is surging. D-Central has built deep expertise with the full IceRiver lineup — from the compact KS0 desktop miners to the full-size KS5 rack-mountable machines — covering hashboard repair, fan replacement, power delivery issues, firmware recovery, and control board diagnostics.

Model not listed? We have repaired miners that most shops have never even seen. Contact us with your model and symptoms — if it exists, we have probably fixed it.


Our Repair Process — From Intake to Full Hash Rate

We do not guess. Every repair at D-Central follows a rigorous, systematic process designed to identify every fault, fix it properly, and verify the repair under real-world operating conditions. Here is exactly what happens when your miner arrives at our facility.

Step 1: Submit Your Repair Request

Fill out our repair form or email [email protected] with your miner model, serial number, symptoms you have observed, and any photos of visible damage. We will confirm receipt and send you our shipping address within 24 hours.

Step 2: Ship Your Miner to Our Facility

Pack your miner securely — original packaging is ideal, but any well-padded box will work. Remove all accessories (PSU, cables, fans if detachable) unless they are part of the issue. Ship to our repair facility at:

D-Central Technologies
4479 Desserte Nord Autoroute 440
Laval, QC H7P 6E2
Canada

Step 3: Intake and Diagnostics (24-48 Hours)

When your miner arrives, we log it into our repair tracking system, photograph its condition, and begin automated diagnostics. We test every hash board individually, check all voltage domains, inspect the control board, verify the PSU output, and run thermal imaging to identify hot spots. Within 24 to 48 hours, we know exactly what is wrong.

Step 4: Detailed Repair Quote

We send you a comprehensive diagnostic report with a breakdown of every fault found, the repair work required, and a firm price quote. No hidden fees, no surprises. You approve the quote before we touch a soldering iron.

Step 5: Repair (3-7 Business Days)

Our technicians perform the repair — BGA rework, chip replacement, trace repair, component swaps, firmware recovery, whatever the board needs. We use genuine replacement components sourced from verified suppliers and repair to factory specifications.

Step 6: Quality Testing Under Load

Every repaired unit goes through a full burn-in test. We run the miner at rated hash rate for a sustained period, monitor temperatures across all chips, verify power consumption, and confirm stable operation. We do not ship a miner until it passes our quality benchmarks.

Step 7: Secure Packaging and Return Shipping

Your miner is carefully packaged, and we ship it back to you with a detailed report of the work performed, test results, and your repair warranty documentation. You plug it in, point it at your pool, and you are back to hashing.


Types of Repairs We Perform

ASIC miners fail in predictable ways. After repairing over 2,500 units, we have seen every failure mode there is — and developed proven repair procedures for each one. Here is a breakdown of the most common repair types we handle.

Hash Board Repair

Hash board failures are the most common reason miners end up on our bench. A single dead ASIC chip can knock out an entire hash chain, cutting your hash rate by a third or more. Common hash board issues include:

Control Board Repair

The control board is the brain of your miner — it runs the firmware, communicates with the hash boards, and connects to your network. When it fails, the entire miner goes down. Common control board issues:

Power Supply (PSU) Repair

ASIC power supplies push enormous amounts of current and they take a beating. We repair the most common PSU models used in Bitcoin mining:

Fan Replacement and Cooling System Repair

Fans are the most mechanically stressed component in any ASIC miner. Bearings wear out, blades crack, and connectors corrode. A failed fan does not just reduce cooling — it can trigger thermal shutdowns that take the entire miner offline. We replace fans with OEM-quality units rated for the correct airflow and static pressure, and we test the fan controller to ensure proper speed regulation.

Firmware Recovery and Virus Removal

ASIC malware is a real and growing threat. Malicious firmware can redirect your hash rate to an attacker’s pool, lock you out of the web interface, or brick the miner entirely. We perform clean firmware recovery — wiping the infected firmware, reflashing from verified manufacturer sources, and securing the device against reinfection. We also handle bricked miners from failed firmware updates and SD card corruption.

Immersion Cooling Damage Repair

Immersion-cooled miners present unique repair challenges. Dielectric fluid residue, thermal compound compatibility issues, and connector corrosion all require specialized cleaning and repair procedures. We have experience repairing miners that have been through immersion setups and can diagnose issues specific to this cooling method.


Repair Pricing — Transparent, Fair, No Surprises

We believe in pricing transparency. Too many repair shops hide behind “call for a quote” and hit you with surprise charges. Here is what typical ASIC repairs cost at D-Central. These are real price ranges based on thousands of repairs — your final quote depends on the specific model and extent of damage, and we always confirm before proceeding.

Service What It Covers CAD Price Range USD Estimate
Whole Miner Diagnostics Full unit diagnostic — hashboards, control board, PSU, fans $65 per unit ~$50 per unit
Specific Part Diagnostics Targeted diagnostic on a single component $35 per part ~$25 per part

Frequently Asked Questions About ASIC Repair

How long does an ASIC repair take?

Most repairs are completed within 5 to 15 business days from the time we receive your unit. Diagnostics take 24-48 hours, and the actual repair typically takes 3-7 business days depending on the complexity and parts availability. Complex multi-board rebuilds or units requiring rare components may take longer. We provide a specific timeline estimate with your repair quote so you know exactly when to expect your miner back.

How much does ASIC repair cost?

Repair costs depend on the model and the nature of the damage. Our diagnostic fee starts at $65 CAD ($50 USD) for a full unit assessment, and this fee is applied toward your repair cost if you proceed. Hash board repairs range from $95 to $195 CAD depending on the complexity level — from basic MOSFET swaps to advanced BGA rework. PSU repairs run $100-$300, and control board repairs $100-$250. We always provide a detailed quote before starting any repair work, and you are never obligated to proceed. See our full pricing table above for detailed breakdowns.

Do you repair miners from all brands?

Yes. We repair Bitmain Antminers (our most common), MicroBT Whatsminers, Innosilicon, Canaan AvalonMiners, Halong DragonMint, and other ASIC platforms. If it is a SHA-256, Scrypt, or other algorithm ASIC miner, we can almost certainly repair it. We have model-specific repair pages for 38+ models, and if your model is not listed, contact us — we have likely repaired it before.

How do I ship my miner to D-Central?

Pack your miner securely in its original box or a well-padded shipping container. We recommend removing detachable components (PSU, cables, fans) unless they are part of the issue you are reporting. Wrap each hash board individually if you are sending loose boards. Ship to: D-Central Technologies, 4479 Desserte Nord Autoroute 440, Laval, QC H7P 6E2, Canada. We accept shipments from Canada, the United States, and internationally. Use a tracked shipping service and insure your package — miners are valuable hardware.

Is there a warranty on repairs?

Yes. We offer a 7-day DOA (Dead on Arrival) warranty on fixed parts and a 3-month warranty on full unit repairs. If the same issue recurs within the warranty period, we repair it at no additional charge. Our warranty covers the specific work we performed — it does not cover new, unrelated failures or damage from improper use after repair.

Can you repair water or immersion-damaged miners?

Yes. We have experience repairing miners that have been through immersion cooling setups or have suffered water damage. Immersion-cooled units require specialized cleaning to remove dielectric fluid residue before we can diagnose and repair them. Water-damaged units may have corrosion, shorted components, or degraded connectors that require extensive board-level work. We assess the damage during diagnostics and give you an honest evaluation of whether the repair is cost-effective.

Do you repair miners from outside Canada?

Absolutely. We receive miners from across Canada, the United States, and internationally. You ship the unit to our Laval, QC facility, and we ship it back when the repair is complete. For international shipments, please be aware of customs declarations and any applicable duties — we can advise on the best way to handle cross-border shipping for ASIC hardware.

What if my miner is not worth repairing?

Sometimes the cost of repair exceeds the value of the miner — we are always honest about this. If diagnostics reveal that a board is unrecoverable or the repair cost does not make financial sense, we tell you upfront. You only pay the diagnostic fee. You then have the option to have the unit returned, surrender it for spare parts (some miners have valuable components even when the board is dead), or apply a credit toward a refurbished unit or new hardware from our shop.

Do you sell replacement parts?

Yes. We stock hash boards, control boards, fans, PSUs, and individual components for popular ASIC models. If you are comfortable doing your own repairs, you can purchase parts directly from our parts catalog. We also sell complete replacement hash boards for miners where chip-level repair is not cost-effective. Contact us for specific part availability — our inventory changes frequently as we process repairs and source components.

Can I learn to repair ASICs myself?

Yes — and we encourage it. D-Central offers ASIC repair training both in-person at our Laval facility and remotely via 1-on-1 sessions. You will learn diagnostics, chip-level soldering, BGA rework, and board-level troubleshooting from the same technicians who have repaired 2,500+ miners. We also publish free repair guides and educational content on our blog. The more miners who can fix their own hardware, the more decentralized and resilient the Bitcoin network becomes.
