    • Proceed with the soldering. Very likely just heating up the solder that was in the connector will be enough to push the wire when is melted. Otherwise, just add a tiny bit more of solder on top.

    • A pair of soldering helping hands is very useful for this kind of soldering.

    • With a multimeter, check that the pads are not in contact, either from overflowing solder or from loose wires.

    • If there were any shorts, you might need to reheat the solder to make sure that stays within a single connector, or you might need to cut any wire that would be crossing from one connector to another.
