<p>Hi everyone. I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos on how to make this kind of repair but can't find any on this exact one. This is for the Blu-ray drive on a fat Japanese PS3. I have a general idea of what to do but I just want to know for sure where I should solder some copper wire onto the board from the pins of the connector that ripped off. Here is a photo of it where I am asking if I got the points right. Please let me know if I am wrong anywhere. </p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
