Yes, just touch the terminal/connector briefly with the iron tip and the solder should melt. I think you may use too much heat if you try to remove the piece of old wire and the old solder from the terminal. Don't bother, just solder to what is there, It'll do no harm to leave it and as long as you achieve a new soldered joint to the lead out wire from the coil/diaphragm edge that's all you need worry about.

To clean the fine wire, I'd gently try and scrape it all round with the tip of a small sharp craft knife. If you use sandpaper you may pull on the wire and cause damage.

Many MANY thanks to Geoff and all who helped me...all done now and tweeter is working fine....Ill take the advise and coat the bare wire with clear nail varnish later and perhaps a small piece of insulating tape over it should protect it more...many thanks all
