Accidently reversed d11*Fried trace!*
so i was a klutz and had d11 reversed then when i went to hook up power from my car the trace from pin 28(12v) fried off to d11. so i figured ok no big deal, solder a jumper wire and correct d11. well when i went to take d11 out the cylindrical through-hole insert in the pcb on the unbanded side came out with it.i cant put it back in because its now melted away. also trace from d11 to d13 is gone too. checked resistance between the leads of d11 and d13. came up with 0 resistance. so im assuming they're both fried. i think the local radioshack might have d13 and i have a spare d11. im afraid to do anymore damage. should i replace them both, jumper pin28-d11 and d11-d13? will that work? with the metallic insert gone i dont think the solder with fuse too well with the board anymore. are there traces within the board that i cant see that i cant simply jumper? im not an experienced solderer and i get the basic concepts about circuits and boards but if im missing something please bear with me.

Double-check polarity on everything. You probably won't get away with too many more mistakes like that!
