thank you in advance.

you insert th ecomponent leads into the socket. be sure to know which socket hooels are for collector, base, and emitter. good luck!!

i just pressed it firmly in until it doesnt move anymore. is that the correct way?

Yes you should be good.

Its like sticking an IC Chip in a IC Chip socket.

Yup . . . more or less. Just be sure they're seated firmly, don't bend the leads, and as lastwinj said - make sure you get the EBC aligned properly. Not all transistors are the same configuration.

got it. i think the emitter,base and collecter are aligned properly. thanks guys! i surely hope it works.
