MacBook Pro 16 resistor near the display flex burnt with smoke

I tore my Macbook apart to clean fans. Then I plugged everything in again and tried to turn it on before I close the backplate. I opened lid and tried to press and hold power button and it didn't turn on. I decided to try again with charger. Smokes started coming from the hinge area and I immediately removed charger. A resistor was burnt. What could cause that and more importantly can I fix that. I don't think it did a lot of damage.

You’ll need to find someone with the deeper micro soldering skills, this needs more than a DIY can do.

Yeah, I agree. The thing I wonder is how that happened. It probably short circuited or something but I wasn't able to find anything related.
