Fix damage from pins that got pushed in
  • Some pins had gotten pushed in far enough that they ripped up traces, so it was necessary to reroute their connections from the bottom vias.

  • To be able to solder to the vias, you have to scratch the solder mask off of them with a sharp tool like an Xacto knife.

  • Then it can finally be soldered to with a high gauge wire. I took a section of larger stranded-core wire, cut it, and unwound it.

  • Taping the connector down to your work surface makes it easier to work on the small solder joints required here.
