   It's time to clear the corroded components, starting from the RTC circuitry south of the battery.

   I used a $30 electric vacuum pump iron on the back of the board to suck most of the solder from the pins.

   Then I pulled gently from the front while heating the area with a heat gun.

   Most solder would melt easily, but pins attached to GND or heavily corroded would need more heat.
