Hello everyone.

After reading that article on replacing the battery base for the machine, I tried to replace the battery base myself, but due to my poor soldering skills (first time using it), I accidentally burned the solder joint in the negative battery hole, making it impossible to adsorb solder now.






Can I connect a wire from the right solder post and run it through the negative hole of the battery?

Thanks to all the experts for their input.
