A501 dammaged from battery leakage
« on: April 03, 2008, 01:52:20 PM »
My A501 i damaged from leakage. There is a big lump on the PCB where the - pole of the battery was. and the nearby capacitors  leg is almost covered in corrosion...
Will washing this card in baking soda stop the acid attack?

(How do i add pictures from my computer to a post?)

Water is normally used for neutralizing base and acids.
Washing the piece that needs cleaning and leaving the other by... And dry it carefully with a hairdryer or heat gun...
Should work...
