New 3DS power connector broken off

I just bought a New 3DS and it didn't charge the battery when plugged in to the power supply or the charging dock but it woked fine with a battery charged externally.
The mic did not work either and I noticed the cable looked damaged. I ordered a new mic and replaces it. However, I noticed the connector for the black and red wires from the ABXY board looked a bit wonky and tried to disconnect it and it broke off completely. The solder joints are far too small for any of my tools. Is there a place I could connect those wires instead of the original joints for the connector?
