Dear foof,

Good p.m. Removing the controller isn't that hard. If you look through my posts, I'm pretty sure I set forth a detailed procedure. The job should take about an hour.

When you reflow the solder, use a 25-watt soldering iron, rosin core solder only (not acid core, which will do damage, over time). It should take no more than 1-2 seconds of heating to reflow the solder, on each joint.

The relay (rectangular and black) is on the edge of the circuit board closest the to main connector. It has four contact points. Reflow the main connector joints (12 or 14 of them, I don't recall which), as they, too, carry a lot of current.

I think you'll find this will solve the problem, and not create other issues.

Feel free to ask any further questions.

Yours faithfully,

spook
