    Default Looking for someone with soldering skills

    So I've been working on this TV for a while. Purchased the circuit board I need to fix it, and it arrived today....with a broken capacitor.

    It' is barely hanging on, and I need someone who is good with a soldering gun to maybe reattach it for me...

    Any leads?

    I'm a long way from you, but back in the 90's I was NASA certified to solder on manned spacecraft. I'd be happy to do it.

    Your a little far away. piece of cake fix as long as the cap is good. And that may be a coil not a cap. Notice the number starts with an "L" telling me that it is a coil not a cap. L9601 says inductor. A C9601 would be a cap. I may be wrong since god only knows what the Chinese do these days...
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    Well, if the component would need to be replaced, I still have the old board, and the identical component on that board is intact...

    $15 pencil-style soldering iron, some of the wicking copper braid, and a bit of practice on the old board...you'll do fine.


    Never trust that little metal stand that comes with the iron, and everybody gets burned at first

    I'm in S/E Aurora, and have all the necessary tools at home. If you want to bring it by, it'll take about a minute. Bring the old board just in case.
    PM me if interested.
