First, practice! Find something similar and practice removing and installing the pins. You can remove them by heating with a fine tipped soldering iron then using a solder sucker to remove the excess solder. Then installation is basically the reverse. Clean the area, use a very find tip, and then a small dab of solder.
It may help to melt a small bit of solder onto the board, then heat the pin to sink it into the solder. After which you would add a small amount of solder to solidify the joint.
Very fine solder is a must. This is a pretty challenging first soldering project and if that is the case, it's worth practicing on a similar connector. |
