40 minutes

Moderate

My Problem

The device was heavily water damage. We where able to replace damaged fuses and diodes however the pop cap power button was corroded beyond help.

My Fix

We simply bought the replacement Power PCB from you guys in the States. It arrived fast and fitted and worked perfectly.

My Advice

When fixing water damaged items don't reflow as causes solder balls to go riot, get past tester on hand to check circuits and get ready to have a steady hand when soldering replacement components.
