Hey Everyone,
I have a circuit board from a Solaris fixture that had gotten a little corroded by salt, where two resistor bridge connections (soder points) have rusted thru. Everything has been cleaned with vinegar etc. to remove salt and corrosion, and has been retested to find that everything is in working order except for one sting of LEDs that are on the circuit with the broken soder points. The actual points where the resistor connections are lost are at the bridge connections, from the resistors to the board itself. Can I just bridge it with a little soder or do I need to replace the resistors as well? The only reason why I haven't tested with re-bridging by re-sodering is because of the small scale and how little soder I will need to use. I just dont want a ton to runoff onto the baord and make the situation worse. If someone is an electrical/computer engineer and wouldn't mind taking a look that would be greatly appreciated. I think it’s a quick fix, just need conformation. I tried taking pics this morning but they didn’t come out, so I will try when I get home.
Thanks,
-Anthony
