MAster shake i mean tha drizzle. My 9pin is solidly attached to the metal plate. My socket soldering loops move a bit but not the socket itself. Did you put the retaining ring on top?

 

[CAPT Deadpool]

But im still putting mine together thatnks to your question i noticed that one lead was loose when I wiggled my socket so thank you

 

[Paladin79]

With the retaining ring on top the nine pin socket should be nice and tight. I have not tried mounting that socket underneath.

I am using the retaining ring and it's as tight as it's getting and the white socket moves around a good amount inside the retaining ring. The larger socket is solid as can be. It is also mounted on top as it said in the instructions.

That does not sound right, can you post a photo?

Here is one of mine, socket is flush across the top, ring holds it firmly. I may have changed out the socket for a ceramic one but the principle should be the same.

 

[Th3Drizzl3]

from a pic it looks perfect but if you grab the white socket you can move it around. ill take a pic though. its def mounted per directions

Mine does not budge in the least. The ring should fit snugly. I will try to catch up tomorrow if you are still having issues.

Which part wiggles, the metal ring in the very center?

 

[Th3Drizzl3]

i can literally turn the socket back and forth about an 1/8" and move it back and forth. ive tried flattening the ring some and its the same way. i may have to order a ceramic socket instead.

 

[CAPT Deadpool]

Did u use all the washers etc?

 

[Th3Drizzl3]

yes. exactly per directions checked multiple times

 

[CAPT Deadpool]

Can you take a picture of the other side. And did you use one short and one longer screw for each socket?

 

[CAPT Deadpool]

Weve got Lots of ?s just trying to help. I asked Paladin for his help earlier for u

 

[audiowize]

It is not the end of the world if the socket moves a little bit. You can put a drop of super glue on the back side of the plate between the plate and the socket to lock it in place.

 

[Th3Drizzl3]

i think i figured it out. the retaining ring has a good amount of extra metal on the underside of it where the screws go through its not flat at all. looks like when they punch the holes in that metal they were never cleaned up.
