ok, I've replaced quite a few caps by now. I'm no expert, but am always striving to try to learn something new.
I was trying to get a TOM, location ready and decided to go ahead an replace all the E caps. After I finished with the power driver I noticed I wasn't getting 5volts. After a little while, I traced it down to the top and bottom of C5 positive not making a connection. I've never seen this happen before. was as careful as I always am with this stuff.
anyone have any tips on replacing the eyelet or would you even recommend going that far. I'm pretty sure that C5 isn't the only one that got ripped out, since there are only 10 eyelets, I figured I'd replace them all but I've never done it before. Mainly wanted to see if anyone else has been down this route. I'm actually kind of happy this happened, been wanting to learn this part of pcb repair.
