    Nicely done! I'll be keeping that in mind myself for future fixes.

    Did you just have to clean the corrosion off the traces or did you have to actually redo any of the lines?

    There are 3 options

    1: You can run a cable from a leg/pad on a chip/board to where ever it's joining up
    2: Put tape down, sandback and put solder down
    3: Bring it somewhere

    3 is what I did, I showed the guy what I thought was wrong, he tested it very quickly to verify and had it fixed quickly (I do not have a steady hand, so wasn't going to attempt this myself doe the sake of 30 euro)
