Resoldered power switch with flux and tested with mulitmeter.
linear regulator removed, no change.
I also removed the usb connector and replaced with a new one. No difference. My usb power supply light flashes when connected which means there is a short somewhere.
I removed the extra header I soldered to the VIN/VCC area and i think i’ve begun to damage some of the pcb traces. Copper is exposed in a few places. Posting picture.
My soldering iron is 60 watts, with a chisel tip. Plenty hot. Maybe too hot?
I’ve spent a great deal of time looking at my soldered connections with magnifier and nothing seems obvious. Anything I can check next?
