Hi. Just some solder, solder braid and lOts of paste flux. Also knOwn as tacky flux. Works better than liquid flux IMHO.

Hi Riaan, good repair. By the way, what kind of tool did you use to de-solder and re-solder?

Wel done Riaan. Thanks for sharing this article. I do repair navigation devices from different brands and they mostly have the same problems: bad solder joints, bad switches, or totally discharged batteries.
As others also wrote, you have a nice microscope equipment. I do it still with magnifying glases over my head...

Nice job, Riaan. I'll be glad when I can get a microscope like yours.
