Reattaching Suface-Mounted Resistors
« on: February 04, 2004, 03:10:04 AM »
I have a motherboard that I unfortunately dislodged two surface mounted resistors.
The tabs on each end of the resistors are still soldered to the resistors.
Because of this there does not seem away to resolder them back into place.
What are my chances of "glueing" them back into place?  I only have $10 tied up in
the computer I screwed up, so any suggestions on repairing it will be welcome.

Thank you to all that have replied.  The resistors themselves are not damaged
(BTW they are small, plastic, yellow, and  rectangular).  It appears that the contact
from the motherboard peeled off with the tabs.  I will try to post a couple of pictures
this evening to clarify my description.  Again thanks for all the suggestions.

Yes, I believe you are correct.  They do appear to be capacitors.  I apologize for the mistake.
Here are links to some pics I took.  The lighting is not great.  I will try to make better ones, but
hopefully this will help.

Yes, I believe the little black and gray things are resistors.
I only assumed the yellow ones were resistors by association
with size and mounting.  BTW, the motherboard is still  functioning
without the two dislodged capacitors, but I want to "fix" it anyway.
