With the solder wick on top of the solder bridge, heat the wick using the soldering iron by pressing on top of the affected area.

The solder wick will be very hot! Avoiding touching the area of the wick near the soldering iron.

Alternatively, use wire cutters to cut off about 2 cm (0.75") of braid. Use tweezers or needle nose pliers to place it as described above.

Continue to apply pressure with the soldering iron to the solder bridge until the solder is melted and absorbed by the wick.

A soldering flux can also be used here to aid in the desoldering process by reducing oxide films.
