Re: Struggling with a soldering job, need help.

Thank you for the replies, I am replacing the blown transistor with a surface mount one.

So far I have cut the Alu wires and cleaned the board up I will try with silver loaded solder

Hello, although I've never been formally taught soldering techniques, etc... I've not really run into too much trouble soldering, with the exception of this job...

I've got a supposed blown transistor on my fuel pump on my car and I'm trying to replace it. It's a gel encased circuit booard with very fine connections. Please see photo uploaded.

I've cleaned up the area that I'm working on with alcohol scraped off the wires, etc..

I cannot get any solder to now stick any of the connections, I've used various grades of solder and flux combination, nothing...
