I have a Tacoma with an outside temp and compass display in the ceiling. Its a known problem where the resistors come off the circuit board. I tried soldering it but I am having no luck with it. Anybody want to give it a try? I mail it to you/you send me a quote to fix it or tell me its scrap?

 

Thanks

I repair ecus from time to time if you file down the end of a fine point soder pen and use a good flux core soder. Most boards are coated so have to clean any coating off. I use a big magnifying glass to c the cirucut in detail. I just did a ecu for 02 outback shop had pinched wire and burnt a trace was able to remake it with one straind of wire sodered across the burnt trace.

Yep GD and Tom are correct,

 

I've been doing it all day for many years, the place I work for does componet level repair/test/calibration on control electronics for the power production industry.

Correct tools and procedures go a long ways to a quality repair.

We even do some board repairs on heavly damaged 30+ year old boards.

I'd could take a shot at it Shawn.. if you want to send it this way.

A little late to the game here, but I have fixed my 62" HDTV that had 130 bad SMD caps between 5 motherboards when I got it. It's been 2 months since I fixed that bad boy and haven't had a problem since. Needless to say, I have gotten pretty damn good at soldering stuff, especially surface mount stuff. Through hole is a piece of cake. Took me less than 5 min to solder in a resistor to fix a ej swapped digidash tach :)

 

If you want to send it up to me, I can take a look at it. LMK!
