850 ABS-unit failure in hot weather after first resoldering?

It is not a trivial thing. Many people are lucky and get by. I few
people know what they are doing and get it right every time. I worked
for AT&T Bell Labs and our technicians could tell when an engineer did a
solder job. I was an engineer and usually got it right. The
technicians got it right every time.

It´s done now. I went to a local electronics repair shop, yes very few of them
are still around nowadays here, chatted quite a time with the guy there. He
resoldered it for a reasonable price, told me that it was a nasty job to get the
contacts cleaned. He suggested to istall it first preliminarily to check
function and heat tolerance, all ok now, so today I sprayed the
electronic-circuit-sealant onto the circuit, sealed the lid with a silicone like
high temperature resistant sealant, changed the screws and hopefully will never
never have to bother about the unit.
Thanks again for any input
