Not fully reading the directions before installing the component, I immediately clipped off (at the respective holes where the two component leads were inserted) the leads after installing current sensing resistor R7 into the closest of the 3 holes on the two solder pads. Would it be sufficient to solder short pieces of the clipped off R7 leads to the two pads, from the innermost holes on the pads (where the R7 leads have been soldered and flush-cut), or do I need to remove R7 and properly install a new, replacement resister? Since, even thought there's plenty of electrical continuity, there's a physical discontinuity between the resister leads and the small clipped pieces of lead I've installed, I'm wondering if this is going to cause an electrical performance (or cooling) problem down the road, that can only be avoided by taking out the improperly installed component and installing a replacement component correctly.
