Hi,
I need your help guys. I have an Atten 8586 for some years and it's working great until the latest days during a soldering work the tip start becoming glowing red...
I've noticed that the tip becomes red incandescent when I set a temperature higher than 300° C.
Plus if I put the station at max temperature, 480°C, the display show that the current temperature is 422°C circa and hangs...
So i'm assuming that there's some "temperature reading" problem with the central unit (it does the same thing even with a new soldering iron).
Hopefully i was clear, can someone can help me, give and advice, etc?
I know it's a cheap cinese junk, but now i can't afford new charges for a new, and better soldering station....
Thanks
P.S.: If you need photos, you can see in this
