    So im about to replace 2 resistors on my LG...question...

    Im about to replace 2 resistors on my LG 50PJ350 's PSU

    Here is the kit that im using:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Now does it matter what solder I use for this? This kit came with some sort of lead-free...im guessing standard electrical solder

    any advice for a noob would be appreciated

      It doesn't matter.

      The old solder on the board is lead free.

      If you plan to use leaded solder (easier to work with, with that iron), just do your best to clean the old solder from the board but don't stress yourself too much.

      If you mix lead free and leaded solder there might be an issue of reliability (weaker soldering job) but we're talking about possibility of failing in years of use.

          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...

          What LED's to Buy To Replace Backlight LED's and What Solder with LED's
          by Tarot Superstars
          Hello.

          I changed the led strips on my Hitachi 32 inch.
          The TV is now ok since I have already replaced any capacitors that needed replacing.

          I have also bought a spare set of LED strips for the tv also.

          I want to be able to replace singular LED's in the LED strips if I need to, but I am not sure what value LED package to buy from Ebay in the UK.

          The LED strips I bought were:
          Replacement Backlight Array LED Strip Bar For Hitachi 32HB6J61U 32HBT41U 32" TV

          On ebay I have a choice of singular LED's with voltage and...

          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...

          Best way to solder LVDS connector for beginner (and qfn) ?
          by corrize
          Hello, I'm a beginner for micro soldering. Right now I have some difficult to solder a qfn 20, I guess I put too much solder on the thermal-ground pad, the result is a corner of chip wich don't touch the board (last try).

          I use a wire solder with hot air, I tin the board and chip before with iron and I use good flux.

          I will have to solder a LVDS connector (40 pins, laptop pc), I saw a solder paste in seringe, good quality (it does not scatter).
          See the test :

          With hot air from bellow the board, that's...

          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...
