PS4 Pro Broken PSU connector
Hi.
Today, during opening of my ps4 pro I unfortunately damaged PSU connector. 2 of 4 pads are gone from motherboard. I come here for a little help.
Does someone knows where I can solder cables onto motherboard to fix does 2 pads?

I found following pinout in my PSU. I also found this picture on the internet, but when I checking connection between followed "+5V SBY" point and my first pin "5VSB" I got nothing. GND point works as it should.

Can someone help me? The only pinout that I found said that one of the pins should be empty, but it doesn't match description inside PSU.

My console model is CUH-7116B
Regards

Unfortunately this is typical issue with PS4. Any decent electronics repair shop should be able to fix that. I don't advise trying to repair it yourself, since it's very easy to make bad situation worse.

I too was having a problem removing this cable from the board so instead I unplugged it from the power supply unit which comes off very easily.

I would just connect it to the via and make a new trace, solder most of it down and glue the connector down. Thats a lot of damage my friend, made me say “daaaamn, you fucked up good”

Thanks for the all replies. I'm glad to inform that the console is working again. For future fellows that will have a similar problem, I wanna mention that "+5V SBY" from the second picture goes to the "ACIN_DET" pad, and, of course, "ACDC_STBY" goes to "ACDC_STBY". I didn't check where the "5VSB" pad goes, but I will check and share when I finally fixed it. For now, I'm waiting for a proper glue to mount the connector on the motherboard. Right now I just soldered it with cables to the points
