    CPU CAP replacement

    Was wondering the best approach for this cap replacement, the CPU is a heat sink itself isn't it?
    Also I need advice on finding a CAP to match the others, how to I measure(with a multi meter)of course but what settings?

    I got a micro scope and have done a few micro solder things, but assume I know nothing cause pretty much I do!!

    Looks like this Cap is the same rating with the caps around him , so if you can test those 10 surrounding and find the same ratings , then logically he is the same .
    Palladium caps are almost everywhere , you can find a similar , even in an old cdrom or a defected board .

      Hot air station. If you don't have one, a hot plate set to 100C should bring the temperature up enough for you to be able to solder it with your iron. But if it works like that you should just leave it alone. Unless you're planning on overclocking it where it could make a difference.

        Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
        by acedogblast
        This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

        There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

        Google Pixel 5 - Proximity Sensor Issues - Reflow/Replacement procedure tipps wanted
        by groomit
        Hi,
        I just replaced the battery on a Google Pixel 5.
        After that the proximity sensor isn't functioning properly any more. It is constantly activated. So when playing a voice message on Whatsapp, the Screen instantly turns off.
        Checking with a sensor app I can verify weird behavior of the sensor. It is triggered when nothing is near and sometimes works correctly when squeezing the phone next to the sensor hole.
        The rubber seal is on again (as mentioned in various suggestions in other forums).

        This smells like a cold or broken solder joint. So I'd like to reflow...

        Sony OLED XBR-65A8G 4 flashes
        by Glaval
        Hello, my Aunt recently gave me her broken Sony XBR-65A8G OLED after getting a replacement. It had a 4x led flash error, a replacement T-con didn't fix the error but with helpful info from this forum I found one of the smd ceramic caps on the panel pcb (C575/C378) on a 24v line was shorted to ground. I removed that cap and the tv turned on without error. It still had a black screen with the original t-con back in it, once I put the replacement t-con in it finally had a picture. After doing a panel refresh it had a very good picture but with a few vertical lines for some scenes. For owners with...

        UV solder mask - high temp resistent, recomendation?
        by myth77
        Can someone recommend any good UV solder mask? But i need a solder mask that will stand high temperetures. The thing is...sometimes i have a bigger cooper ripped from the board, lets say mosfet pad... i reconstract it with cooper sheet, then i "glue it" with solder mask...then i use UV light...and let it cool a bit. After, i try to clean the cooper of extra solder mask..and till that part all is ok. But, when i use a soldering iron to solder that pad/cooper...the solder mask gets weaker or destroyed and finally the pad is ripped again from the board .
        Is there any solder mask...

        BGA solder balls not connecting - help pls
        by petemanuk
        So I though in my spare time I’d set myself up repairing motherboards mainly pin damaged lga1151 sockets types.

        I’m using an achi ir sc pro rework station (gave up on my Achie ir6500 - don’t recommend)

        I’ve managed to get my rework profile somewhere in the correct region (after a lot of trial and error) to get the old sockets off and reflow new ones back on again, the problems I’m getting is not all of the solder balls are re-attaching when re-flow occurs. I know this because when socket is removed pads still look clean and have no solder...
