Title:

PS5 DIY Fan fix FAIL

Text:

It all stared with me trying to clean my ps5 fan, when I accidentally ripped the fan connector off the motherboard. So I researched the Internet and watched the repair videos on YouTube and figured I could solder the fan back on the motherboard myself....
So my dumb self was scratching the motherboard trying to expose the copper wen I realized I scratched too far. I know I messed up caus when I put it back together I get the blue light, white light, then the 3 beeps and the console shuts off.
-I'll post a picture of my F**** up and I need to know if this is repairable.
+I'll post a picture of my mess up, and I need to know if this is repairable.
