    My overhead temp/compass gauge. :annoyed: :frusty:

    I have soldered this SOB too many times it keeps going out. My work just isn't good enough. Is there anyone in the area that is confident to do this thing 1 more time and have it stick? I'll give someone a few bucks, or a few beers to git r dun.


    :cheers:

    Nick, I have the same problem. I consider myself good at soldering but I have had to re-solder this resistor several times. The last time I tried to solder it I noticed the resistor had gone bad after testing with a multi-meter.

    So, I went to radio shack and picked up a pack of five 47 ohm resistors (that's the closest to 51 ohm they had) for $2. They are not surface mount but I was able to solder one in place and it has worked for several months now.

    I like what you did with the CB!

    Think I can hire you to fix my board? I'll come to you! I'm in no rush. Let me know.

    I would be happy to help you. I am not looking to make money.

    Maybe next time we go on off-roading.

    Have you tried the 2 4x4 trails at Rowher Flats? They are pretty challenging & fun.

    Sounds good. Last time I went to Rowher we stuck to the easy trails. I think. I don't really remember, I just follow people most of the time lol
