With your heat gun set to HIGH, evenly heat the area boxed in red for four minutes.

When using the heat gun on high, it is extremely important to continually move the heat gun so the stream of hot air evenly heats up the desired area.

Avoid directly heating the many cylindrical electrolytic capacitors located near the area boxed in red.

After heating the area boxed in red for four minutes, turn off your heat gun and allow the motherboard to cool down to room temperature without moving or disturbing it in any way.

At this point, we strongly recommend installing our Red Ring of Death Fix Kit to safeguard against future failure.
