Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I'm not sure how to explain it, it's a power connector (I believe) on the inside of an oscillating fan but not the part that gets plugged in to the outisde. It's the 4 pin header type of plug if you know what I mean. So it stays plugged in all the time. Sorry I don't know all the terminology, I'm still trying to learn!

OK, that’s unlikely to be a high tech circuit board. Try simply resoldering the connector pins, I’m guessing there are 4, but that is a guess. Apply the clean iron tip to each pad in turn, and run a little fresh solder to them.
