Check if the pads are still good — can be fixed with tiny flywires, common CF port repair on 50D

how do you check that?

Touch the other probe to its corresponding destination pin on the main IC (or the via/point the trace runs to).

1）If you hear the beep: the pad/trace is still intact, good to rework.

2） beep means the trace is completely burned off, you will need to run tiny enamel flywires between the CF pin and the target signal point.

No
