Hi All, I have 5 Amiga that need a good cleaning, some have leaking batteries and caps. Need a full diag and replacement of faulty chips, sockets and traces. Looking for high quality repair and replacement. Thanks in advance.

Amigas
A500
A600
A3000D
A3000T
A4000D
 
Have you tried contacting retrorewind in Canada?


Better for postage costs?

If postage costs not an issue then maybe @hese could help?

So far no response from RetroRewind. :picard:
I have ordered a solder station and scope, looks like I'm going to dive in.
Is there a BOM for high quality recaps?
 
To be honest - dont learn how to do it on amigas. Ask professional.
In US Chris Edwards is the best. Check his youtube videos. He is here as @macphreak4evr
Btw, show picture of 3000t battery leak. How bad?

The have a few practice boards. I used to do this a lot in another life before career, but I know I'm rusty. I have 5 Amigas I need to recap and replace battery damage. The A3000D is the worst, A3000T is a close follow.

Best to practise on a non repairable board, any board will do with surface mount caps and broken traces etc, just not an Amiga :)
