| Request from someone with 475/Quadra 605 and multimeter |

Hi,
I accidentally lifted a pad on my Performa 475 when removing the capacitors.
I'm not sure how to repair this. I was wondering if someone with one of these machines (an LC 475/Performa 475/Quadra 605) could check some continuity on their board for me if they have a multimeter?
I need to know if the two pads, highlighted in red here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/2eqwqyk749hj5gt/p475_pads.jpg?dl=0) are electrically connected or not?
They're at the back left of the board.
Thanks!

They are connected. You can even see that in your picture. You ripped a part of the trace that was connected to the pad.
You can repair that with a tiny piece of wire to form a new pad. You can solder the wire to the via that is right next to where the trace ripped.
