Hello I tried to fix my xbox original halo se because it is not turning on. I bought the 5 capacitors to replace I’m new to fixing consoles still learning but it catches my attention a lot. Anyways, I was able to desolder all 5 of the 3300mf 6.3 v I believe. Do you guys have any pointer on how to remove the solder between the holes as the new capacitors can’t go in. I tried everything. Also how much hear in celcius do you recommend. I also made a big mistake some of the solder pads came off and I don’t know what to do or how to fix it. I believe I used too much heat and force. How much heat do you recommend for removing the soder between the holes and do you think the board is still salvageable? I was so excited to fix my Xbox because it’s not turning on but after that happened I’m disappointed in myself in a way. I know it is my first time trying to desolder something though.
