taylor76zharris Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Im just wanting to know if this can be saved. Its never run on a car but this happened as soon as i turned on the ignition. Has anyone ever been able to use a board that has this amount of damage? I know you cant tell if something is burnt internally and neither can i. Any help would be great, Thanks, Taylor.

skirkland1980 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 You'll just have to run wires in place of the copper traces that are burned. Hopefully it can be fixed. You can take it to...maybe a computer repair shop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I burned a connector and the ground wire of my LS2 computer while working on the car. Burned the wire it's entire length and I had to replace the whole wire as it snaked thru the harness for about 10 feet! Luckily the connector was salvageable. I had a short to ground on a loose wire-it was all my fault. Did you figure out why you burned it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor76zharris Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 No, i really don't know why it burnt up like that. Im sure i just had some wires mixed up. This is my first attempt at such an in-depth wiring job so i was expecting a few mistakes just nothing this serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 It is *possible* that it could be fixed. That's a 4 layer board, so it's hard to say what got routed on the two internal layers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
