    I need a neighbour like you, i like to strip down radios like these when a problem occurs but that's all i do, i know nothing about electronic or soldering or how to test, but I've managed to fix my pure siesta once by buying a 2nd hand one from ebay and swapping the little power board multi coloured mini connecter that took the power supply and micro usb and fixed it, felt proud too as a novice!

    If you dip the braided wick into solid flux paste (the sort that comes in make-up type dispensers as opposed to the liquid stuff) and press it down with the soldering iron so that the flux melts and runs up into the braid you'll find the wicking process works really well.

    What a coincidence, i just thougt about ordering such a device today. This looks very similar to a radio offered under the brand Technisat Digitradio 51, but instead of a metall antenna rod as seen on your device it seems to come with a simple antenna-wire instead.

    with breaks like this I usually expose the broken trace, make a loop out of capacitor leg, remove all the old solder, put the loop over the jack leg, bend the excess of the loop to follow the trace then finally cover the trace,pad, loop and jack leg with a good solid joint of fresh solder. This kind of fault comes up constantly with Megadrive model II, PC Engine, Atari Lynx, Sega Game Gear and pretty much most gadgets with barrel connectors but those are the worst culprits.

      That's good advice! I was going to suggest the same - extend out further with a wire or something.

    I watched the video as soon as I could. I didn't know how to write a reaction to it. The video is from a series repair during tea breaks. So. If I could find such a defect at all, a flowering tea tree would grow in my cup of tea in that time.

    Vince. I have a request. I own a harmony one remote. They are a advanced remote control for pretty much everything but there's several videos online trying to fix the problem with the charging dock. None of the videos online "fix" the problem. I'm sure you can fix it and I'm sure it would also generate tons of views as well because it's a commen problem with these. I have one and I would love to get it working and I'm sure thousands of other people would love to get theirs working as well. Thanks for all the inspirational videos.

    When you discover the crack first it is very noticable that the fracture in the PCB extends further than that and there are cracks in the adjacent traces.

    The solder fix is not going to hold up well. With time and wiggling, it's going to break again. A more long term solution would be to bridge the connection with an inch or so of flexible wire soldered at each end. That way it would be able to withstand the inevitable tiny movement of the connector just fine.

    Soldering tip for you. Apply heat from the Iron onto the copper pad to heat it up BEFORE applying solder. Let the copper pad melt the solder so you will get a better joint. I suggest watching a video about it by the veteran Electronics expert and RUclipsr BligClive:
