simple and fun rework. this pin was grounded but needed to be tied to a signal. I removed the solder and added some glue to insulate it from the pad, then soldered the wire on.

Wouldn't it have been better to cut the pin on the component side, and bend it up to attach the signal wire to?

@RealGene it is a chip socket and there is no room

@tubetime I'd just have cut those two little traces left and right, or is it connected to grnd on multiple layers?

@locastan it's connected on the top layer as well. I didn't want to remove the socket.
