            <description>Hi,
Welcome to the eTechnophiles forum. 
Got a question like, \&#039;What resistor value to choose for your simple LED project\&#039; OR \&#039;Where is the resistor connected to the inbuilt LED in Arduino UNO\&#039;s schematic\&#039; - All will be answered here. 
Feel free to check out the topics below.</description>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From the images you provided, the connector looks like a JST PH 2-pin connector:</p>
<ul>
<li>Pin Count: Your connector has 2 pins.</li>
<li>Pitch (Pin Spacing): The spacing between the pins is likely 2.0 mm, which matches the JST PH series specification.</li>
<li>Shape and Latch: The rectangular plastic housing and latch design are typical of JST PH connectors.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>To replace:</strong><br />Female Side (Cable): Search for “JST PH 2.0mm 2-Pin Female Connector with Wires” (pre-assembled).<br />Male Side (PCB): Look for “JST PH 2.0mm 2-Pin Male Header” to solder onto the PCB.<br /><br />Alright, that mess on the board? Totally fixable. You can try this:</p>
<ul>
<li>Grab some isopropyl alcohol (the stronger, the better – like 90%+).</li>
<li>Find a soft toothbrush (or anything soft-bristled). No need to get aggressive here; gentle scrubbing works best.</li>
<li>Dip the brush in alcohol and start scrubbing off the gunk. </li>
<li>For really stubborn spots, just pour a bit of alcohol directly onto the area – it’ll help loosen everything up.</li>
<li>Let it dry completely. Like, bone dry. Don’t rush and power it back on while it’s still damp – bad things will happen!</li>
<li>Once it’s all dry, take a closer look. Check for any broken traces or damage. If everything looks clean and intact, you’re good to go.</li>
</ul>
