    Bad solder joint on circuit board.

    Hello all, I would greatly appreciate anyone's opinion this matter. Can this be repaired by simply resoldering? I'm concerned about the blackened area around the joint which looks to be burnt and also the wider discoloured area around the joint. Many thanks.
