Anyone have the knowledge or access to the schematics to identify the bit pointed to by the arrow (see picture)? I suspect its a resistor, but I don't know. I'm looking to identify what it is and the details (ohm rating, etc) so I can have an electrician assist me with soldering. I'm not keen to send it all the way for expensive repairs when I know this is the only problem with the logic board.

Thanks for your help.

I know it appears bad, but it looks worse than it really is. All the circuit lines are still active, I've checked, and it can be salvaged with soldering. I just need to know what the bit is.

Thanks!
 
sadly, the "good" logic board picture was scalped from the internet. Anyone know what this bit is?

I do have other identical bits on the logic board that I could test- I do have an ohm/voltage meter...

Thanks!
 
What board # is it?

I have schematics for my macbook 2.0 ghz c2d my board# (820-1889-A) it looks similar but not exact. I got my schematics from notebookschematics.com

The nearby KB/TP markings are interesting. Sounds like keyboard test point. Would be amusing if it was a short (a.k.a. "zero ohm resistor").
