    I damaged a card by unsoldering the rows of pins (male) because I had to solder wires directly on the card (the card does not light up anymore connected in 5v power supply to the Arduino, it lights up with 12v on the other hand). I obviously tore off some contact (see photos) including pin power supply 5v. I have for repair purposes soldered the new male pins, taking care to make the welds on the upper face of the card, the lower face being damaged. Unfortunately it still doesn't work ...

    I looked on the net for the map board and from what I see of the tracks I could already bring the 5v on the surrounded part to see if it turns back on ...

    If I scratch the part surrounded in green can I recover the 5v track a little further?

    The easiest way to restore the 5v connection would be to run a wire from the 5v pin header to either of the 2 resistors marked 5v (either of the 2 inner resistors in your 5th pic)
