    Just like Iq said you need a soldering tool looks like a pencil they are electric and butane. I got the butane because most of the times I got to do some soldering where I got good light to see what I'm doing there ia no electricity so the butane is the right tool in my casa.......but if it is a too little thing like the caps of this module someone else has to do the job because of my none stop shaky hands...,.trust me it is good to challenge your self to try but you need to practice applying the proper amount of soldering stuff or you'll connect one circuit with another one making a short circuit.

    It is very tricky, and very little heat is required to de-solder components . Had luck doing JB200 to JB200-B conversion w/ many modules, but destroyed some also. A pair of precision tweezers is necessary, not what your wife may use to pluck hairs. Not sure these caps are the problem, but also willing to try to see if swapping out fixes problem.

    would you have a link to the caps you ordered? i see in the thread that the wrong ones were accidentally ordered.

    You can still use the caps if they are 22uf, all you need is 2 small copper wires soldered to each end of the cap, then bend the wire
    over to match the solder points on the module then solder them to it, I do this all the time in auto repair, TV repair & computer
    repair.

    I think the heat gun is a bad idea in this case as it will melt the solder on the other parts of the board,JMO.
    You don't even need to remove the ends of the old caps most of the time, all you need to do is remove everything between the
    ends of the old cap then solder the new cap on top of the old cap ends.

    I have been trying to provide the photos in this post as an attachment, however either this post is not allowing me to attach, or I am doing something different than I have done in 100's of other posts, as you can see by my previous deleted posts in this thread.

    This thread was a great help today. Turned on my jynx v6 less than 2hrs ago & no power. Did a search here on jb200 repair & found this thread. Looked at the picture on page 1 post #9 & replaced the 2 caps as shown in the picture. I put negative pointing towards back of receiver. Also put in a bigger fan. Great to have things lying around the house. Oh,the jynx is working perfectly now.
