If you have never soldered before, there are guides on the internet and even on iFixit that make it easy to learn. We suggest becoming familiar with soldering before proceeding.

Now we are ready to begin the soldering process. You'll need a soldering iron, solder, and desoldering wick.

Clean the soldering iron by melting a small amount of solder onto the soldering iron's tip. Then wiping the tip of the soldering iron on a damp sponge.
