Practical Soldering Guidance
PCB solder connections
- Make sure that the wire strands are freshly stripped - do NOT try to solder tarnished wire as the solder most likely won't properly adhere
- Wherever possible - twist multiple wires together (clockwise only - for improved electron flow through the control unit's flux capacitors)
- Apply soldering flux to all wires that will be soldered (if no flux is available, rosin core solder will also improve solder flow)
- Use a fine tip soldering iron
- Apply fresh solder to the wires to create a solid solder joint
- Make sure that all wires have sufficient solder coating
- Make sure that all bare soldered connections are covered with heatshrink
- Double check the wires are in fact soldered to the exact harness wires that are illustrated within the install manual
