    Need Help Replacing Capacitors - Viewsonic VX2245wm

    Hello - this is my first time replacing caps and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to know where to solder on the back of the board? I don't see the matching numbers on the back as what's on the front next to the caps.

    DAC-19M009

    I'll take some pictures if that helps at all...

    Thanks in advance!!

    Some boards have it marked on the back others don't.

    If you are having problems do what I call spatial mapping, get a bright strong flashlight and shine it directly down on the cap that you want to change. Then look at it from the backside and mark which solder joints they are.

      thanks...I tried earlier to take off one of the caps using the soldering iron, but it's not doing barely anything to melt it. maybe i have the wrong tool. What should I be using? I have a 30watt with like a thin tip.
