How to resolder power and ground

Hello and thank you in advance. So the springs for battery pack have completly been stripped(i think). For some reason this control doesnt let me connect a usb cable so i dont have to use batterys. Is there a way for me to connect it directly so i dont have to use batterys maybe from one of these pins on top or from the middle maybe? Not sure what else i can do at this point. I really appreciate it!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi!

I'm afraid you need to solder new battery pins in. It's designed to work wireless.

It's not really hard to replace them though (if you have the soldering equipment).

If you don't have soldering experience, I advise to contact a local repair shop to replace them.

When replacing them, make sure to clean the whole board with isopropyl alcohol as well.
