Last night a bat flew in my room (yes, this really happened) and I was playing something on my PC. Anyway, I got startled and pulled the cable and ripped two wires from the gamepad's panel.
So, I took my soldering piece and tried to fix it up, but it got messy. All in all, I did it in the end, I put back all the pieces where they were, but now when I plug the gamepad in my PC, the area where the wires were soldered gets really hot. Not the whole panel, just that little area gets increasingly hot and gamepad doesn't appear to work, though its light is blinking as if it's working.
Provided that all the wires are in the right place, would this mean that the gamepad is broken and I can throw it away?
Thanks for caring enough to read.
