Great tutorial - I have never soldered a circuit board before and have just followed this guide to replace a capacitor in an old amplifier (advice from another You Tube video). It is now working brilliantly!
I soldered the spot that must have over loaded and lost connection. It was the same spot in the video. I didnt need to replace the control board. I just had to solder that spot. The dishwasher works like new now!!!!!! Thanks!
I got to a “mechatronic robotics” class in highschool and we are soldering and I’m trying to get learn some techniques to get a good solder joint, this video helped me thank you!
Nice simple tutorial. Now I see a lot of people adding extra notes already, but about cleaning your tip, if you have an abrasive brass sponge, I highly recommend using that instead of the wet sponge. It has better ease to remove corrosion formed on the tip of the iron and there's fewer risks of thermal shock
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else is searching for computer monitor repair try Saankramer Electronic Magazine System (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got excellent results with it. 1:22

3:23 I didn't quite understand this part. You want to remove the excess solder because you want the flux to evaporate so that there is none left. But later you say if you solder without any flux, it could lead to a bad connection. So are we trying to remove the flux or keep it?
cryora After you solder a joint, whatever flux is remaining in the solder will evaporate. So you will still have solder on the tip, but no flux. You want fresh solder that still has flux in it, for the next joint.
Here’s how I explain it to novices: the solder “cooks” when hot (be it on the tip, or when heating a joint for too long), and overcooked solder makes for bad joints. So what you want to do is “clean” the tip of overcooked solder by wiping off as much as possible, and then “rinsing” with fresh solder right before making a joint. (The “overcooking” is the combination of a few factors: 1. all the flux burning off, 2. the solder itself oxidizing, and 3. the contamination of the hot solder with other metals (copper from PCB traces and wires, and silver and copper from component leads, mostly) from prolonged contact while hot, resulting in a sort of undefined alloy. Flux helps prevent and even reverse oxidation, so adding flux can help to an extent.)
Excellent tutorial. A further Q; will the iron shown on the left 0:19 make the 350 degrees needed for soldering? Again , thanks for sharing. Subbed no hesitation.
hi, i have a doubt, After dip soldering, some of the areas is not soldering properly, again i need to make the manual solder in some area, solder forming as flat soldering. it not cone shape solder is not forming, what is the problem? how can i solve this? can you help me?
Thanks for a good video. However, there’s one thing to correct: lead-free solder is very toxic and it’s safe to use only with proper respirator and hand gloves.
hey, i bought a cheap $20 well from home depot seems the tips keep burning up is this me or is it due to the cheap solder iron,I know this is somewhat hard to answer but any help would be good cause im thinking about spending around $110 on a better iron. something with temp controls. One of the problems i keep running into is i keep getting bad joints i do a nice looking job but somewhere i always have to reflow a joint or 2 idk but it really becoming a problem.
Tone Log Vintage Replica's 1966 Expensive iron won’t help you, sir. Now I would assume that you cleaned your soldering iron using a sponge right, sir? I used to have those problems when I started to learn how to solder.
Hello! Im a student and i am studying the cracks on middle of solder in pcb components. Can you say to me some solutions to solve this problem? Does it depends of the welding alloy? or the themperatures? Can i solve this problem? Best regards.
I don’t see the difference...if you cut and then solder, the copper is still exposed. Btw, every single professional I have seen on RUclips solder and then cut.
NY Prince Absolutely not. In the most demanding industries, like aerospace and defense, you always cut first and then solder, because then you pull the soldering iron up over the cut end, causing the solder to tin the cut end. Cutting first also ensures the solder joint isn’t mechanically stressed during cutting. Cutting afterwards is common in hobbyist and less demanding industries doing very small-run production, but cutting first is unquestionably the preferred method.
NY Prince The videos by Pace Worldwide, despite their age, remain the gold standard in soldering instruction. This is the one about through-hole component soldering, demonstrating how to tin over the cut end of the lead. I do recommend watching the whole series from the beginning, since they go into the foundations and terminology used in the later installments. ruclips.net/video/AY5M-lGxvzo/видео.html
It's all about putting heat quickly into a small area - if the iron is at the right temperature the pad will heat up to the melting point of the solder quickly allowing you to make the connection and then dissipate into the surrounding board. If the iron is not hot enough the pad takes longer to heat to the required temperature and more heat dissipates into the surrounding board which is when damage occurs.
Urban exploration Squad Totally disagree. A good pump works well for removing components. Wick is terrible for removing components, but is perfect for cleaning up the pads before installing a new component. Pro tip: buy some silicone tubing of a size that will tightly fit onto the tip of the pump. Cut a piece so that, once mounted, it extends about 1/4” past the hard tip. This lets you get in closer and make a better seal, even while touching the tip, since the silicone won’t burn or melt.
I don't know why you leave out using rubbing alcohol on your circuit board to remove any old oxidation that has built up and using flux on the board where your connectors are will give you a much cleaner soldering job result? I don't understand why so many people think that just because there is flux in my solder that I don't need to use any flux on my board, in my wires or on my connectors? That information is "bad" for the most part.
im having trouble because i dont have 3 hands and so far you are not showing the "trick" to getting the soldered points stationary im in girl-tears here.... And ya thats mine at the end. but my prob is that my solders don't conduct electic current. im using a kit just for pc.....?....looks like i have to lift the mother{F%&*$#@}board....darnit,,,oh thx it solved 1/2 the prob im giving thumbsup
These tips are OK if you're working on consumer goods but both military and civilian aviation standards would consider these methods to be criminal, not to mention NASA and high component cost situations where excessive heat, cold solder joints, measleing, and crazing will get you fired. If you're not familiar with the afore mentioned terms then you are not a solder tech. If you can replace a burned resister...great. if you can't repair the damage done to a multi layer board because a component shorted and burned...well...you get the idea.
Miguel Angel In America we pronounce it as sodder. Sol-der is how the British pronounce it. The way we pronounce it the L is silent. If you are American and are pronouncing the L than you are not pronouncing it the American way you are using the British way.
Wrong method, author has no clue about proper soldering. Do not put solder wire directly on soldering iron tip, and then on joint! Place end of the wire to component lead and PCB pad.

Great tutorial that what i was exactly looking for thank you.
doesn't trimming the excess lead after soldering have a RISK of fracturing the solder joint ?
I find that after working for a little while, the solder no longer wants to stick. What's going on there?
Best vid i seen online so far😁🖖
Im subbing thank you...
i always clean it with alcohol to make sure there is so flux making a connection

Do not solder then cut as it exposes copper, always cut then solder, I work in PCB assembly so I solder everyday.

Great video but as an American I have trouble hearing it as "solder" and not "sodder"
Travis Johnson as an American I think you should look it up, the L is not silent
Great tutorial
Whats wrong with having different cones? Its a great way to make them stand out from one another ;)
3:15 Beautiful.
Is there water or flux on the sponge?
Seth Jones water
Great video
Wait a second, so you can actually touch the soldering iron to the board and it won't damage the board?
It's all about putting heat quickly into a small area - if the iron is at the right temperature the pad will heat up to the melting point of the solder quickly allowing you to make the connection and then dissipate into the surrounding board. If the iron is not hot enough the pad takes longer to heat to the required temperature and more heat dissipates into the surrounding board which is when damage occurs.
Clay Ford
You cheat the melting point of the board a bit by using heat sinks around the work area usually on the same circuit. However the cheating is limited
@@fseelearning usually what is right temperature for most things like this? Also, what usually is the right temperature for desoldering?
Excellent ! Thanks for sharing !
Do I need to use flux on the holes first?
The solder contains a core of flux so you shouldn't need to - providing the solder hasn't been left on the iron so long that the flux vaporises.
Great primer. Thank you
Thanks for the guide
Very helpful!!!👌
Thanks for this tutorial!
this helped thank you!

I still don«t get how you call this basic :)
I ended up breaking my drone out of frustration because I could solder the power chord back on... yeeet
MSFTS TRIO
First time I ever heard of a power chord being soldered.
When you're poor and you have to use a fan and an n95 face mask lol
good thing you have the n95 mask now. Stay safe my friend
first, you use the wrong tip for the through hole, and secondly, you should put the solder both pcb and components pin.. not to the iron tip...
im having trouble because i dont have 3 hands and so far you are not showing the "trick" to getting the soldered points stationary im in girl-tears here....
And ya thats mine at the end. but my prob is that my solders don't conduct electic current. im using a kit just for pc.....?....looks like i have to lift the mother{F%&*$#@}board....darnit,,,oh thx it solved 1/2 the prob im giving thumbsup

So is the secret? To fixing most things is to re solder them?
