[QUOTE="flyboypuoi, post: 745969, member: 25768"] So I picked up a soldering iron for the first time in a few years (not like I was particularly good at soldering before), I wasn't even aware that there was such a thing as a [B]gas[/B] soldering iron. Anyway I hacked at both of my resistor packs, exactly as I planned to. There were several places where the track had broken on Cassie's one, one corner (if you remember from earlier) was completely missing, and as planned I soldered on a piece of wire to bridge the gap (I didn't want it poking out too much as I didn't know how much space there was where these slot into). Yes, it looks absolutely [I]ruined[/I], but guess what? [I][B]It works! [/B][/I]Including on speed [U]2[/U], something that never worked in the entire time I've had this car. (Probably that solder on the right). I'm [I]so[/I] happy with this. Especially right now as we seem to be having some heat wave in the UK. [ATTACH=full]49422[/ATTACH] I also had a go at Billy's one. Only worked on full before, but I could only see corrosion on that one spot. That did the trick though, all 4 speeds are working! [ATTACH=full]49423[/ATTACH] [I]I am very pleased with my work today. I honestly thought I'd just mess it up.[/I] [/QUOTE]
