How to find a part I broke on the power supply
Hello,
I accidentally broke off a part that a wire connects to on the power supply. It connects in a spot labeled CN3. It's black, very small, and has 2 pins. Is this repairable by finding that one part and soldering it on or do I need a new power supply?
The larger board
Zoomed in where the part was, box CN3
Where the connection is
Two angles of the broken part

I was going to replace a fan, but in the process of taking it apart this part broke off the board.

Can you post a couple of pictures so we can see any of the markings on the part as well as where it was located Adding images to an existing question

OK good! You pulled off the temp sensor connection. I'll need to dig around for the needed part info

I suppose a followup question is this. Would the computer start up if this was the only thing wrong with it? Or would it still work and the temperature sensor just wouldn't?
