Broke the socket off logic board that fan attaches to. Fixable?
Was upgrading Mac Mini 2018 RAM and accidentally pulled the fan connector “socket” off the logic board! Looks like it may been attached with some kind of adhesive at Apple.
Is this fixable? I hope I didn’t just turn my brand new Mini into a paperweight!
Any help appreciated!!
Thanks!

@cw2 - You're lucky too! The pads are still intact on the logic board. You'll need to find someone with the needed tools and skills to solder it back on.
