Why do you think the power switch is not working? Have you checked the switch with a multimeter?
An odd assumption, just looks like a spot for a capacitor to me. Not sure why that would be involved.
Where is the power button? If the switch is surface mount, going to be a bit tricky and you would want a multimeter for some testing. But essentially you need to find the traces that the switch connects to and then you could try shorting that out.
Or desolder the switch and short the pads under there.
All this is academic, what led to this problem?
