    Soldering help.

    I am at my wits end trying to get these 2 hole clear. The other 2 holes no problem. I tried low melt, hot air, wick and my solder sucker gun. One hole still has the pin in it. I have my iron up to 450 with a big tip, hot air turned up to 500. Any suggestion? Thanks Michael

    And by the way it took me 10 minutes to find the login button, it sure needs to be a brighter color or something.

      Already stuck back in vehicle waiting on relay for it. It’s a fuse block out of a Silverado, only things on board are a bunch of fuse terminal and 5 or 6 relays soldered on.

        you need a big iron and a stainless-steel needle - to poke in the hole when it's heated.

            Remove board from houseing, remove all heatsink and all removable elements, connectors, wire... then wrap arround whole board with thick cardboard hard paper (from cookies) to reduce loosing heat by air moving.
