here’s some context behind these pictures. I got a switch to repair and upon inspection of the charging port I plugged in the ammeter after seeing that the port looked fine. Next thing I see is the amperage climb up to 2.7 amps at 5 volts and smoke coming out of the switch. I quickly unplug it and open it up. I locate Some liquid damage right beside the LCD FPC connector with some small caps/resistors missing and a hole in the PCB near the VDD Pad of that BGA CHIP. What I’m wondering is, can I replace that cap that would sit above that hole to some other ground pad and just solder a jumper wire to the trace of the VDD pad? I circled a ground pad (3rd pic) that I could use but I’m not sure if all ground pads are equal or if I am in fact safe to place the cap there. Please let me know if you need me to make a bit more sense because this post may seem all over the place. Thanks for reading.
Edit: I replaced M9 after seeing it being shorted and before it wouldn’t turn on at all but now the screen flickers the black light for about a second then turns off.
