    How to clean fpc connectors oxydated ?

    Hello, do you know if it is possible to clean oxydated fpc connectors until it back brilliant please ?
    I know the best is to replace, but sometime micro fpc are very little oxydated and very hard (or unable) to find as new. So, there is may be a chemical product for that ?
    I use vinegar for rust on metal screw or little metal pieces and I finish with WD-40 for protect, else the rust can come back. That works pretty good.
    I not yet tryed on connector. Do you have a good method please ?

              Problem

              This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

              How to clean Liquid Metal from under CPU?
              by silver60618
              Hi all, Im working on a board, that my customer brought to another shop, and smeared liquid metal all over the board.
              The laptop powers on, then shuts off. I noticed traces of Liquid Metal near the edge of the CPU, but I fear some maybe underneath.

              Has anyone ever tried Ultrasonic cleaning, or compressed air to remove or agitate the liquid metal?

              Crimping CAT7 connectors high failure rates
              by CapLeaker
              I’ve had and got a few projects using quality CAT6 and CAT7 23awg solid copper, shielded, direct burial cable. Each time I use CAT7 connectors, most of them fail making good connections to the 4 wire pairs after crimping. I tied a couple of crimping tools, thinking my crimper is bad. Also used different CAT7 RJ45 connector manufacturers. Same thing. I kinda calculate 6 connectors to make one cable!
              Get this: I use CAT5 or CAT6 connectors, no problem. Very rare I have a miss crimp with those. So what gives?! ...

              Are USB C connectors standard
              by Eniaro
              I have a number of laptops with damaged USB-C connectors.
              I wonder if I can buy a few replacement connectors from Mouser to keep, as it seems like the wafer in the middle breaks easily and oftentimes causes shorts.
              I do know there are multiple connectors out there, but I'm curious to know which are most commonly used and how can I identify and purchase the correct ones.
              I purchased USB mini-B connectors in the past, only to find out that the connector was flipped (Lenovo smh).

              KingWin ABT-650MM 650 Watt ATX PSU [PCB: SW8835REV:A]
              by momaka
              For today's thread, I have a KingWin ABT-650MM ATX PSU. Official web page with the PSU specs is still up and can be found here:
              http://www.rmac.kingwin.com/products.../abt_650MM.asp

              I just can't help it when I see a broken / for parts PSU on eBay that's listed for cheap and looks at least somewhat interesting. Well, OK, I won't lie – on the outside, this PSU looks anything but interesting. It's a plain gray box with colorful “spaghetti cables”.




              What mostly drew me into buying it is its 2x PCI-E power connectors...
