E0 Heat Came off Board
-
I wasn't as careful as I should have been and I accidentally popped the E0 heater connection off of the board. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Is there a way I can use E1 Heat instead to heat the hotend? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Use can use E1 instead, just change the config.
As long as you didn't rip out any traces or plated holes its easy to replace the connector with a soldering iron, but if it was removed by force odds are some damage to traces. Would need to look closely at the area to say something for sure.

Good to know I can just change to E1. Do you know where I can find the documentation to help me configure that?
Also here is a close up.
Thank you for the quick response and help!

you're in luck seems the board is fine, you will however need to desolder the pins left in the board. a solder sucker or solder wick is helpfull to clean the holes to accept a new terminal (I think 3.81mm, i replaced mine with pluggable headers in that size).
To adapt your config i think you should look at

Could I just go through the RRF Config tool and set up E1 then just use it that way? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm not the brightest in this field aha.
