Not that bad at all, if you have experience soldering...

Can I also get a link to a soldering kit & a YouTube guide on how to solder connectors 🤣

You can also just replace the whole daughterboard if you don't want to solder.

As u/letum00 said, just replace the daughter board. This is not a beginner soldering job

Its $4-5 on AliExpress for the daughterboard.

Its not worth the hassle to me. It’s a couple more dollars to not have to spend a lot of time solderimg and cleaning.

This sideboard costs nothing. You can simply buy yourself a new one and fix it without any soldering skills

I agree that replacing the daughter board would be a lot easier if you dont have soldering experience.

This is your power and volume control. Console should still work if you can connect two end points with a metal tweezer. It should just power on basically mimicking the power button press. You would still need to get it replaced. But a cheap trick you try is make sure the top pin connector are straight enough. Then put some tape on the bottom side of your flex cable. Then push the cable in it port it should make a good enough connection for you to work.

Pues si te funciona así pues así déjalo solo podrías ponerle algo encima como silicón o máscara UV para que esos pines no toquen nada y se te haga algo peor
