Gamecube Thermal protection circuit question

[sonictimm]

I am using a (sort of) medium GC motherboard cut, and while I was relocating the 3.3V line, I made the really stupid mistake of soldering it directly to a chip instead of to the corresponding trace on the motherboard. Well, it's been a while since I have done any soldering and I accidentally bridged the thermal protection circuit output (to the regulator board) with the 3.3V input (to the motherboard). Here are pictures:

And more zoomed in:

I have spent an hour or two trying to fix my stupid mistake, but it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to do it.

If I power up, would this fry the motherboard? If the protection circuit is only closed when the 'Cube is overheating, then I think I'll be fine. If not, then I have no idea what would happen, so that's why I'm asking.

Why would you take the risk? Just use desoldering braid, will take 10 sec to fix it:

First thing, the wire you used for that job is way too thick, your also using too much solder, keep that iron clean.

use desoldering braid, like posterd above.

Thanks guys I'll try the desoldering braid!

edit: I also got a new tip for my soldering iron, since the old one is kinda deformed and I'll use thinner wire.
