    • Rotate the motherboard 180 degrees.

    • Do not refer to the pictures in this step for proper de-soldering and soldering techniques. They are for illustration purposes only.

    • Refer to this link for proper de-soldering and soldering techniques.

    • Pull the capacitor from the other side of the circuit board once the solder is liquified.

    • To replace the capacitor, orient the negative side of the capacitor (indicated by a white stripe and a negative sign) so that it aligns with the shaded white region of the circle indicating the capacitor's position on the motherboard.

Conclusión

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
