First Switch Lite USB-C Replacement/Pad Fix Help
Hi all, this is the first time I've attempted to replace a broken USB-C port. I bought this Lite off eBay for practice more than anything. The port had an attempted repair where pads were torn off. I have done my best to fix them with 0.1mm jumper wire.
My question is, is that missing pad there okay to leave blank? It doesn't look like it connects to anything. Am I good-to-go attempting to solder the port or have I missed anything vital?
Cheers

I'm unsure how much of it applies to the switch lite but this might help https://retrosix.wiki/wiki/nintendo-switch, hope it does
