Can this component be replaced?
So when I was trying to change the analog sticks on my controller I accidently knocked off a component fortunately I have a few motherboards with that component can it be replaced?
Is this a good question?

Hi!
Yes it can, but requires soldering.
I think it’s a cap.
But since you got the same component on another motherboard, you can just replace it!
Please let us know how that goes!

As long as the pads haven’t been pulled off
Do they look pulled off?
Hard to see.. can you upload a closer/sharper picture? If the pads are ripped off, you need to repair the solder pad there..
@christophe89153 try to apply solder to the contacts; if they stick then you're fine & if they don't then you've ripped the pads off. fortunately it's not such a hard fix judging from the pics but it's a little hard to explain
anyway, try to apply solder to the pads and see if they stick first, that'll help a lot.
