[QUOTE="FAST6191, post: 600105, member: 32303"] In my opinion flux comes with the solder (or at least it should do) and that will be more than enough for what you need, if you feel especially nervous a quick run over with a cotton bud (perhaps dabbed in rubbing alcohol) will be more than sufficient. You really only need flux for really dirty jobs (cars engines are a good one), heavily oxidised surfaces or if you are in industry. Make sure your iron is fully heated before you even touch the Wii: solder should melt the instant you touch the iron not a second afterwards. My suggestion (not based on a Wii but countless other soldering tasks) is make sure you are not tired or just woken up and have a sugar loaded drink 5 mins before starting. Tin the wire and hold it next to the pad to be soldered. Check the iron is hot enough. Touch the pad and push down on the wire, the wire should go into the melt. Remove the iron as soon as the wire goes in. Wait for it to cool and give it a short sharp tug: if the comes off repeat, if not you have a joint. Repeat for all the other wires. [/QUOTE]
