ECU Repairable???

[240rabbit]

I Fried it when the maf wires grounded....
And i opened it up and saw this....
Is it repairable??? like just adding solder to it so it can be reconnected???

Yes. Be careful.

use a low wattage soldering iron, less likely to burn up what you're trying to solder. And a little extra flux helps. I've fixed a couple with the exact same issue.

Havent been on lately but,
I have no real experience with soldering stuff but i will practice on other stuff before i give this a shot and thanks guys for the help!
Its either i attempt to solder and connect it again or get a new ECU, but i cant seem to find an E5 s13 blacktop one???
Any help or other suggestions would be appreciated but thanks

Fixing that would be cake!

Just practice making a line of solder.

OR

Solder in a jumper wire. http://www.londonpinball.ca/sternpinball/step2/driverbackhv.jpg

I used the jumper wire method. A lot safer than trying to lay a line of solder down without hitting other paths nearby imo. Took about 5 minutes.

ima probably try the jumper wire method, ive been lagging it lately on just fixing it but ima try tomorrow and i will see how it goes and thanks again everyone for the advice, clearly i know and im not that good with electronics >.<

If you do a jumper wire just do me one favor and not let it look like that second board posted, that is just scary.

with small traces on boards like that you want a very fine tip iron. I've repaired a few that looked like the first one posted and they are fixable if that is the only problem. Sounds like your maf wiring is what caused it, but if that wasn't the only problem then you'll end up smoking the ecu again. Good luck!
