hihi,
long story short, Monitor stoped working over the space of about one week. opened it up and noticed two caps leaking... everything else looks fine.
so i would like to replace the caps myself, there decent size, (physicaly) 10v 3300uf.
i have a solder iron.. picking up some solder tomorrow.... already bought new caps from america on Ebay... apparently no local stores had the ones i needed.
is it as simple as heating the solder and joining sticking the wire through the PCB?, its been about 6 years since i last had ago at soldering
EDIT:
this video seems useful
