Mr Yanik,
I'm new here but I've had the opportunity to read a few of your very
informative posts.

I have a dishwasher, per say, (god, I hope she doesn't read this) so I
had to modify your technique using a 409 soaking followed by a
scauldingly hot water bath in R/O water followed by anhydrous
isopropyl alcohol (for dehydration) followed by a hair drier and then
a few hours to sit, low and behold I achieved the desired result.
I must say I'm astounded that the phantom resistors have been
excorcised completely. Hats off to you Mr. Yanick! Many thanks to
Andreas too!

There was a faint smell of what smelled like bleach as I was giving
the board the hot water bath, the smell of chlorine being released
from a compound perhaps? Or more likely being released from being
trapped. I don't think it was a neutralization process because I
wouldn't have smelled anything. Anyways, the process works.
Thanks, Mike
