as long as it dosn't noticeably move its fine, if your worried you can heat up the iron melt a little bead or solder to it then tap the top of the prong and it will roll down and recoat it. i do this **** all day long at work. but it really should be fine

i work for daktronics and i solder probly about an hour a day, ive never even heard of solder doing that, but if you really want to fix it like in that thread, i suggst desoldering them and replacing it all with new solder. as long as theres contact though, i dont know why it wouldn't want to work

did you ever drop the main relay or anything like that? if so, wiggle stuff around and eventually it should get the car to start atleast once, so you can move it to your garage etc. then order a new one from honda for like 40 bucks. if this isnt the problem, we will need more info to help you out

edit: my main relay was damaged and causing my car not to be able to start without any visible marks.

looks like a cold solder ring to me. i would deff. resolder it. if its not it wont cost **** to resolder it anyway. and yes a ring like that would make a diff. the piece does not have to wiggle around, the contact at that ring will open and close with temp.l
