Problem replacing M92T36 on a Nintendo Switch
Disclaimer: You do not need to know anything about a Nintendo Switch to help, this is a soldering issue not a Nintendo Switch issue. I am simply a beginner asking for help.
Hello all!
Recently, my Nintendo Switch would not turn on and I thought it would be a wonderful idea to try and repair it. Upon seeing a short near M92T36, I attempted to replace the chip. However, I noticed that I might have screwed up and put WAY too much solder underneath the chip. I cannot use a soldering wick to remove it, it just doesn't suck it up. I have tried using a soldering pump and that also does not work. In addition I have noticed that it is a brown/black ish color compared the the silver it is supposed to be. I am using a Yihua 853D (https://www.amazon.com/YIHUA-Soldering-S...). I use 840 F on my hot air gun and 850 F on the Soldering Iron. I am also using this solder (https://www.amazon.com/MAIYUM-63-37-sold...) and Clear Rosin Flux.
I have tried -
- Using 99% Isopropyl and a toothbrush to scrub this brown stuff away (didn't work)
- Using a soldering wick and a soldering pump to try and remove the excess solder
- Putting the chip on anyways (it will not sit flat)
tldr - I attempted to replace M92T36 on my Nintendo Switch, but applied excess solder underneath. I have attempted and cannot remove this solder or this brown gunk with a soldering pump or a soldering wick at 840 F hot air temp and soldering iron temp.
