Hi Everyone,
I'm a novice and I need to remove the Omron G8P-1A4P relay on this coin-op dryer board (see photo). But I see there's an amber varnish or something holding it fast to the PCB (maybe to water-proof?). I have seen answers on how to do this on this site - to just cut it off after desoldiering it. BUT if you look in the photo, there's no way to get a knife in several tight spots (not just one).
Any ideas that I can try? Thanks in advance!!
P.S. I just ordered an exact replacement and a 2nd replacement that has terminals on it (the TE T9AP1D52-24) in case I need to improvise, So I COULD leave the old one on and soldier wires to the 24VDC pins on the back side and mount it somewhere, but I don't know if the 24 volts (or amps, I guess) needed would drop too low to activate it since the old one would be pulling juice too.
