Step 7

  • This step will require a soldering iron.
  • Now you will have to remove the existing contacts by way of clipping the line of at an appropriate length away from the contacts.
  • Now solder on your new connections on the board.
  • For the connections to the casing, you should be able to remove them with a little force. If you feel like you are using too much force, feel free to use a heat gun to eliminate some adhesive on the casing side of the contact.
  • Finally, adhere the new contacts to the casing with a “super glue” like Krazy glue.
