    This is a circuit board from my slow cooker. It quit heating a week ago so I opened it up and found a broken wire. That was easily fixed.

    I figured while I had it apart I should look at the display board and see if I can fix the missing segments. I resoldered the one pin but nothing changed.

    Unfortunately my eyes arent what they used to be so the others someone pointed out will be a challenge.

      5th pin down on the far left side in the picture.

      There’s no solder on the pin.

      Most of the joints are questionable, that one is flat out bad.

      Oh, that makes more sense. The heat from the malfunctioning cooker may have resoldered these points badly.

      I was curious how like half the points were bad, and that could explain it.

      e: especially since they’re all at the bottom half of the board. That was closest to the heating element, right?
