Goblinz Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Not seriously knocking myself... Just had a real fore-head slapping moment and thought i'd dhare it here for your amusement. I've spent many hours trouble shooting to this and was nearly at the point of unsoldering everything and starting again stage by stage!Had a coupel of small "glitches" on this one. Managed to solder one of the 40 pin IC sockets in with the leg bent over; The only way of gettign it out was to cut it up and desolder a few legs at a time. (my brother used to have a soldering iron with a long flat knife edge balde that would have been perfect for this... Could I find it at the time?.. No). Second one was when I managed to pull one of the pads off my LCD... I thought i'd be needing a replacement but managed to solder a wire on to the trace on the back of the PCB and secured it with gaffer tape... I was quite impressed by this fix but the LCD will be replaced eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Nice :) I've done that with a socket too. The one tha took a long time to find the problem was when I did the chip AND the socket. :-[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenDer Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I was putting in the midi kit in my Dr55. So you have to desolder a jumper between the start and stop button. Managed to connect the wires wrong so it kept on firing its first step with no sound whatsoever. So took the kit out and wrongly soldered the jumper back which resulted in no sound. I freaked out thought i fried the memory chip went out and bought a new one (9 euro's). The next morning took a good look at it and saw my mistake. Resoldered the jumper to its correct position and everything worked again. Scared the living daylights out of me.......anybody need a 5501 memory chip? 20 euro's ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
