    So 310 celsuis would be what? 590 F, right? I'll lower it to 590 F and see how that works. I had it set a bit high for desoldering and just never set it back. Thanks!

      i use 310 for everything other than low-temperature soldering with 5% silver solder.

        Thanks! I'll give it a shot later. I usually was using 600F for the soldering when I was using the silver stuff and then 650 when I was desoldering. I'll give the 590F (310C) a shot and see how well that works.

          I tried the 590F (310C) and it worked but took a bit longer to melt the solder. Is there any dangers to using a higher temp? When I set it to 630F (332C), that seemed to work the best.

            10 boards down, two more to go!!!! Then I just need to find some solderable flat pieces of metal to attach them all together.

              to find the best temps, look at the datasheets for the solder & flux.

                  Variable resistor potentiometer has different reading when mounted on the board
                  by waigy
                  In my fusion FE-402 car amplifier the gain pot is an RK097G.
                  I think it is anyway, the RK097G is the closest I've found to the original with the same pin number and dimensions.
                  The differences are my pot is blue and has B203 on it and the shaft is plastic with a small slot at the very end only.
                  I measured the resistance and found it went from 0 up to 10k so I ordered a 10k pot.
                  I then took the pot out the board and it now measured 22k.
                  I tried putting it back in the board and it goes back to 10k.
                  Is this normal and if so what pot should I order?

                  WD Sentinel DS5100 (NAS) boot issues
                  by DeanWy
                  Hi all,

                  I have a Western Digital Sentinel DS5100 NAS system which has stopped working. It has dual BIOS. I bought the system second hand with an already broken primary BIOS (it rebooted multiple times until second BIOS was used).

                  It worked until recently. The system was idle in Windows Server 2012 and a BSOD occurred, I think it was 'critical process died'. Thereafter it didn't boot, it just sat there with no video output and fan speed at 100% (there's a proprietary Windows driver by WD which controls the fan, outside of that it always runs at 100%).

                  There...

                  Help reading schematic voltages input/output
                  by gjgib
                  Hello, this might be embarassing since I consider it a dumb question but keeps me kinda stuck sometimes in my journey.

                  I want to know if there is any post in this forum which explains my questions. A) When, where and how do I know when X voltage line is input or output. Example:


                  I'm battling with this IC to understand it's voltages. It's from non-turning-on Lenovo Ideapad 3 15iil05 - NM-D461.

                  I see some lines like +5VL / +5VALW / V9B+ / +3VALW being okay and some others like 1.8VALW / +0.6VS / +2.5V_DDR. I just know that some of them are bad or missing,...

                  Schematic vs. Reality: Where Are the Resistors on My Sharp Clock Radio? Model FY-70CH
                  by TinkerTron
                  Hey everyone,

                  I'm currently working on a mid-70s Sharp Electronic Digital Clock Radio, Model FY-70CH. I found the service manual online, printed it out, and have been studying it for a while. My main reasons for tackling this are: (1) I want to learn electronics and figured I'd start with something I had on hand, and (2) I want to fix its issues. Right now, the radio sounds awful, has about 5V DC at the speaker terminals, and the alarm time setting doesn't work. But I'm not asking how to fix these problems.

                  Instead, here's what's been bugging me so far:
                  The schematic...

                  Acer x163w Monitor PSU schematic
                  by atunguyd
                  Ii wonder if anyone can help me. I have a Acer x163w monitor which is not powering up. The PSU main capacitor's one leg had completly come off - I replaced it but the PSU is still not outputting DC. I found the monitor in questions service manual here on manuals lib but the schematic in there is a completely different - the schematic shows no mosfet to drive the transformer while the one I have does use a mosfet - also the schematic shows only one optocoupler but mine has two.
                  The PSU board is labelled FM-20A02-AAA made by APD as per the image below. I am trying to find a schematic for this...
