Should be any easy cleanup. Just buy some desoldering braid and apply it to the solder you want removed. Then apply your iron to it. It'll suck it up.

Just be sure you have it all cleaned up before you power on your Wii. Use a magnifying glass to insure none of the pins are bridged!

 

tell us how it went

 

you should try modding those ps2 mods with 20+ wires and soldering onto the bios chip pins

 

Yeah, use a decent power (30W) soldering iron and some solder wick, and it will remove that blob.

Be careful you don't put the solder wick over the capacitors (the two brown boxes) under the chip, or they might come off as well.

And DEFINITELY don't power on the Wii until you're sure that no pins are still bridged.

Good luck!

(P.S. There is NEVER a reason you need a blob of solder hanging off your iron! This leads to cold solder joints, bridges, and splashes, and means you're doing it wrong...)

 

I did the same thing....

Just have patience, you might only get a little bit off each time if the solder gets behind the pins on the chip. It probably took me 20 minutes each time to clean mine up with some solder wick.

 

now thats te spirit just dont freak --try to space out when u do it
