| + | [* black] Apply flux to the solder pads. |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] With the soldering iron held in your dominant hand and solder held in your non-dominant hand, heat each pad until it starts to bubble slightly, then lightly touch the solder held in your non-dominant hand to the pad, allowing only a small drop of solder to melt onto the pad. |
| + | [* icon_caution] Beware of overheating the board and the cable. Only hold the tip of the iron against the pad long enough to let the solder melt. Excess heat buildup has the potential to ruin the logic board or melt the ribbon cable. |
| + | [* icon_caution] DO NOT bridge the connection between the solder pads both on the board and on the ribbon cable with your solder. Shorts have the potential to ruin the logic board. |
