Can I Fix This Untested Acorn Electron? - Retro Repair

Retro Tech Repair 30 min Published Mar 2021

About this video

An untested Acorn Electron bought as spares or repair turns up keyboard problems and instability as it warms, and Retro Tech Repair works through them by trial and error.

Good to know: In the maker's words, this is an amateur repair and not a how-to video. Soldering means burns, fumes and lead.

Why watch it

The maker warns that the methods shown may not be the right way to do the job, so follow the fault hunt for its reasoning and do not copy each step.
