Hi everybody,
New builder here. I have basic electronics experience and have (what I consider to be) decent soldering skills.
I recently built a 4.3 HM, and have been having issues with it since i first fired it up. The first issue i had was that I mixed up one of the BS170 with the MCP1700-33. this caused several startup issues.
With my neanderthal methods of de-soldering, I may have caused other problems.
After receiving the replacement parts today from Digikey, I fired up the HM, and released the magic smoke from inductor (220u INDUCTOR9MM L1).
Is there any way for me to test/salvage the base board? i think the LCD/button board is ok, but would really like to save this project.
TIA,
Bud
