Tools/items needed.
- Soldering Iron (do not use a conical tip if possible. Use a tip with a flat spot for better contact with the board and cap.)

- (Optional) desoldering iron
- Solder wick or a solder sucker.
- The replacement caps.
- Isopropyl Alcohol 90% or greater
- Something to apply the IPA to and scrub with to clean off the flux and or leaked electrolyte
