Prep for repair

After cleaning up the board and reseating new socket I simply resoldered in place. Now with the new socket installed, I needed to connect the unsoldered lead to the data port on board.
To find where the trace/lead went to I went to the Internet to find where it connected. I found many usable images to determine the path.
To remove the coating on the board where I needed to solder , I scrapped away the coating with an Xacto knife.
