I'm curious to know how that happened.During changing caps I managed to overheat pcb and melt it
I used cheap desoldering pump which I believe overheated or pcb wasn’t of the best quality. Anyhow mic worked and now doesn’t work even if I put old capacitor :/I'm curious to know how that happened.
Try using some -- solder-braid -- or a "solder-sucker" to clean-up and get rid of all of the excess solder around all of the component pads. Then, as > Ricardus < has suggested, thoroughly clean the PCB with a good "board-cleaner" solution and get the PCB back into being solderable and workable once again!!!I used cheap desoldering pump which I believe overheated or pcb wasn’t of the best quality. Anyhow mic worked and now doesn’t work even if I put old capacitor :/
If using the manual sucker (and not my air pump de-solder gun) I burn a tiny “U” into the side of the sucker tip so it nests perfectly over the iron tip and gives max suction while the solder is melted. Works like a charm!A lighter plastic sucker probably isnt so bad ,but where delicacy is needed solder wick is your best bet.
Hi, thanks for pointing out.This is a closeup snip of the lower capacitor in the first picture posted.
The lower leg is not soldered at all, and the upper leg is not soldered properly (the solder is present, but it did not flow up the leg of the component, indicating that the joint was not heated to the proper temperature).
