I was finishing up the norway and used some soldering braid to clean up some excess solder with out realizing I killed one rectange and completely removed and lost the other. I know that the whole ps3 isnt dead and that there are no shorts. What should I do im considering getting a cheap parts ps3 and use that for the rectangle. also what did I disconnect? If anyone could help me that would be great. I would be sad that my first gen ps3 was dead. I think its possible to fix but I may be wrong. I did power it up and it gets somewhat far and then shuts off and blinks red. Help would be much appreciated.
Also I am somewhat skilled (6-10) soldering wise (I know it doesn't seem like it when I killed 2 rectangles) so I know that I could do it especially with my magnifying lamp. And would I be a dipshit if I just instead bridge the pads where the rectangle was?
Thanks in advance
The whited out is what I killed.
