NEW 3DS XL Circlepad connector test pins/repair
Love the NEW 3DS XL, however I am currently fixing one where the circlepad connector got ripped off and also some of the pins/pads below.. a lot of scratching and searching I found the test pins. Since I could not find this information somewhere else I would like to share a picture. (you can get GND from everywhere on the board so I did not circle all GND pads. : ) )
I will now try to attach jumpwires and solder a new connector on with a heatgun. Wish me luck. Hopefully this helps someone and more NEW 3DS XL could be saved.
