    vu+duo red light 8 pin regulator change ?

    vu+duo yesterday got up to red light fault.
    have opened it up to find that the regulator u801 has been
    burned so iam going to replace the 3 x capicitors 220uf-16v
    thats simple for me to do.
    but trying to replace the u801 ic is a bit of a problem i only
    have a normal soldering iron put dont want to take the tracks
    of the panel has anyone any good ideas of how to get the old
    ic off without breaking the tracks be obliged for your ideas.

    paddyboy.

    got it sorted.

    applied liquid flux to both ends of the ic then applied solder to both ends then simultaneously heating both ends and gently lifting the ic off hope this might help someone else.
