i broke my wii remote trying to do the LED mod (broke a nunchuck too on my first try T-T) now i am down to one wiimote and one nunchuck >.<

in what way have you broken them? case crack or internal?

bustinthejustin · « **Reply #2 on:** January 30, 2009, 09:15:36 AM »

Yeah it'd help if you posted pictures, or were more specific.

Kilokk · « **Reply #3 on:** January 30, 2009, 05:22:14 PM »

i soldered it fine but when i went to close it the LED came undone and when i took it back apart it pulled up the whole damn wire that it was connected to (by the solder point) and disconnected it >.<

That made no sense whatsoever.

If it doesn't turn on, bridge the fuse.

its not a fuse... if you look at ANY mobo you see little lines one the board, those lines are wires... one of those wires was pulled OFF of the board >.< there is no fuse to bridge >.>

then connect the wire again

it doesnt work like that... its a data bus wire...

PspKicks316 · « **Reply #8 on:** January 30, 2009, 06:49:03 PM »

Then solder a jumper on to it and connect it back to the trace.

Kilokk · « **Reply #9 on:** January 30, 2009, 09:49:40 PM »

i dont have any jumpers >.< i dont think im gonna be modding again any time soon...

PspKicks316 · « **Reply #10 on:** January 31, 2009, 10:56:50 AM »

Just take a leg from a resistor then...It's so basic. Jumpers can be whatever you want them to be.

Kilokk · « **Reply #11 on:** January 31, 2009, 08:16:26 PM »

this is my first mod... (basically can you give it to me in dumb guy? and i have no resistors.) and there doesnt seem to be an end point for the other end (opposite the solder point) is there anyone that can fix it for me? and maybe stick the LED in there as well?

How about you take Photos as to better Help us help you.

heh... i would love to but i have no camera >.>

What he's saying is that he tore the trace off the pcb. last time i checked you cant fix those because they are more then 1 layered pcb's.

wait....siince when do traces come off like wires??!?!?!?

Well my Old video card Had Thin tiny copper wires running from the memory dim chips to the GPU Core. Tracers. it was kinda cool.

bustinthejustin · « **Reply #17 on:** February 01, 2009, 02:09:27 PM »

i don't think he's talking about wires either. I swear to god he's talking about traces.

Yea Hes talking a bout Traces.. some Boards have Tiny wires running as traces they are covered and looks like any other tracer. they look like any other traces but if you were to pull up on where they start or end and Slowly Pull or Pull fast you will pull up a thin looking wire cover with the green.

PspKicks316 · « **Reply #19 on:** February 01, 2009, 03:38:26 PM »

Traces can come off.
Now, just cut the trace where it is and scratch off some of the green layer and solder a wire onto that, and the other end of the wire gets soldered to the other end where the trace broke off.

Kilokk · « **Reply #20 on:** February 01, 2009, 07:59:23 PM »

ok... its a trace yes (sorry... not used to talking to people who understand things like that >.< sorry for not realizing that you guys probably know more than me >.< ) but i pulled it off and it just kinda... stops... im gonna see if my sister can let me use her camera so i can show you guys what the heck i am talking about >.< she probably wont but i can try ^_^

bustinthejustin · « **Reply #21 on:** February 01, 2009, 08:19:33 PM »

Could this be because it's a dual-layered pcb? (Idk I'm just making a random guess here) But if it is, then it might be why it sorta stops...

Kilokk · « **Reply #22 on:** February 01, 2009, 08:47:01 PM »

couldnt tell you bout that... i aint :censored:in wit it till i get a camera to take the pics with (put it back together...)
