Or any other component, for that matter.
I was able to get the old chip out, clear out holes with solder sucker.
However, cannot get the solder to melt when I heat the legs of the chip holder (from the bottom). Solder will melt when touched to the iron, and the iron is hot, but it will not melt and flow.
I was able, with the same iron, to clear out all the holes by putting the point in the hole for a moment, then sucking the solder out.
But when the point is placed against a leg of the holder, for long enough to even discolor the board slightly, solder never melts.
Any tips, or idea what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
