Title: Help! My PCB enter key hole got ruined on my pok3r
Post by: burn1nsun on Wed, 16 September 2015, 13:06:24

I was soldering in new switches, but while desoldering this must have happened, when I soldered in a new switch there, it doesn't work, but all other switches work.

Remove the wire and all the solder youäve put on there and then use a short wire and solder it from the switch pin to the side of the diode, like in this picture:

Yeah that didn't work, it activated like 4 different keys, but its okay, I fixed it, the PCB had an ISO enter key as well, so I just conencted that with a wire :)
