Yep, the area looked like it was completely charred and the solder pads a completely gone, not worth trying to rebuild.  I removed the pinheader from the fried submodule.  And it's up and working good as new -1.  I also ordered 20g of MX-4 and will be applying that to the modules later this week.  Thanks a ton

Whelp today I noticed no sound was coming from the office.  Turns out my Batch 2 Avalon is giving me a red and yellow light, and was also giving off an electrical burn type smell.  I tried installing a new PSU same problem. so then I began unplugging individual modules.  Low and behold one of them is the issue.  I will be taking pictures of it soon to see if anyone can help.  I guess my next question is, Can I NOW run my asic overclocked with the stock PSU with only 2 modules online?  Thanks, and please let me know if there's anything else I can do to help figure out the issue.

Is there anything I can do to fix this, I can solder I just would need to know what to solder.

I've checked out the BOM list, and to be honest I have no Idea what I am looking at http://downloads.canaan-creative.com/hardware/A3256/avalon/2013-11-30/HASH_UNIT/BOM/hash_unit.md
It looks like the smaller SMD component and the 2 slightly larger ones need to be replaced and possibly the Capacitor.  


In the mean time can I desolder the pin header that gives it power?  Would I need to desolder it's adjoining one as well?  Also If I were to do this, Would I need to set my cgminer config miner count to 23/22.

Edit: It appears the pads to solder the components on are completely charred.  My question still stands regarding desoldering the pinheaders.

I still am waiting for a response back, and have not received anything.  I received an email stating Kris would get back to me. It's been 5+ days (from that email) and nothing.

This is my ticket number: ECZ-505-62150

I've reicieved wire xfer's from them in the past (as walletbit).  In fact they responded to most of my emails up until recently where they've completely disappeared.  Very well could be scam.  Surely there are more than just a few people having these same problems

I have a ticket currently open with BIPS.me regarding an old walletbit account.  They have not responded to me in over a week, I even tried calling them and I just get voicemail.  Has anyone else managed to get a hold of them?
