Reply To: CDI teardown and repair
Hi Marcel. Thanks for your response.
Over the last couple of years I’ve split open a few car engine ECU’s and programmed and replaced EEPROMS. So this CDI will be a bit of a challenge but it doesn’t work anyway so really nothing to lose.
Yes, I saw the joint but if I cut along that line it would put me in the middle ground between component side and solder side and leave me with a lot of the potting compound to carefully dig into and remove. So I think I will tackle this by carefully cutting with a mini dremel along the radius of base and sides which I’m reasonably sure will expose the solder side of the pcb.
I’ll post some pics as I progress and see how it goes!
