Partial repair of 5-wire IR sensor connection to logic board

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hello, in the process of replacing the HDD of my new MD388LL/A with a SSD, instead of prying the IR sensor connector out of the socket, I pried the entire socket off of the logic board.  The inconvenient result of this is that my Mac mini power light no longer works.  (I don't have a remote control, but I imagine that wouldn't work either.)

This broken connector / socket is VERY small and has 5 wires, and there's no way I could fix it.  But, maybe I could make the connection for one or two of the wires.  Does anyone know what each of the 5 wires controls?  I would love to get my power light working again.  Thanks! -Michael
