yea I have a solder suckerOriginally Posted by Virtualbody1234Using a desoldering wick or suction pump can be helpful too.Originally Posted by lynxIt's amazing just how many built-in power supplies of that period failed because of poor quality caps of about that size. Probably all from the same manufacturer.
A little (de)soldering tip on that one. You may find it hard to melt the solder, simply because there isn't enough surface area on which to apply the soldering iron. To get round this problem, adding a little solder will increase the surface area and consequently melt the existing solder.
