I recently broke off my GPS connector in a crash and I got a new one and soldered it back onto the arduIMU...But now when I apply power to the arduIMU, no LED's light up and when hooked up to arduPilot with power from the battery of my plane...the arduPilot will not turn on and one of my ESC's gets really hot. As soon as I unplug the arduIMU from the arduPilot, the ESC stops becoming hot and the arduPilot board works properly. What did I short out on the arduIMU for this to happen?..is there maybe a solder jumper on the GPS connector that would cause this problem?

I just de-soldered the GPS connector and now the arduIMU is working. I am looking for a tutorial on soldering the GPS connector. Is there one on this website. My searches are coming up with notta.
