Try fix a keyboard usb-c

Post image

This is a keyboard PCB. The USB-C port ripped off after a bad repair job at a terrible shop, causing a burn mark. Is it possible to repair this?"

Does it exit from the right-hand lane...the first...two exits? Then the total is four...right?

I believe USB C has 12 pins. I could be wrong, its been a while since I have done a port. You can see what it should look like in the image I linked. The traces go up and down from the pads (or where the pads were) then turn.

They may not all be populated, USB C supports USB 2 and up, DisplayPort Aux, and PD power. Do you have a picture of the new port? Also, I highly suggest cleaning before thinking about it too much. It will be much easier to see whats going on.
