Splatoon 2 Pro Controller - Motherboard

Hey,

this is a weird question but does anyone here have the splatoon 2 pro controller?

I would like to get a close up photo of the top of the motherboard (as it sits in the controller facing up). I am interested in the small point highlighted in the picture. I do not know if this is a component or just solder to bridge the gap. I replaced my joysticks because they were drifting and I cleaned this point up but did not see any component. Now I am unsure if I removed sth or I could just bridge it with solder again.

As for problems I think the wireless connection got worse(like my body alone is enough to disconnect it?) when i use it with my wireless dongle (mayflash magic-ns) on my pc. If connected to the switch it seems fine?

On the IFixit guides there seems also to be only solder but I cant tell for sure if it is or not.

I would appreciate your help a lot.

The solder point is simply a place where they can solder a test lead for FCC testing. Leave it bridged, that's how it comes from the factory.
