How much experience do you have in soldering?
I don=B4t have much experience in soldering. I=B4ve only solder some little circuits, but only on a platine.
I don't know what a platine is, sorry. Read some basic soldering tutorials. Basically the solder joint must be clean. Brush the connection with a brass brush. The metal should look clean and shinny. You need enough heat to allow the solder to flow when you touch it next to the iron on the material, not on the iron. You should be using a flux core solder for electronics use, not acid core plumbers solder. Good Luck, Tom
It isn=B4t a metal on which I want to solder a cable. It=B4s black. The contacts which I mean are under a power button.
I meant board, a remote control board.
As a Usenet newbie (posting from Google Groups), you need to read this:

You might CAREFULLY scrape away the (green?) solder mask that is beside the black pads and solder to the copper underneath that you expose.
