Background
Apparently there are two traces that have been interrupted which would allow serial port access.
These traces have been interrupted UNDER a SMD capacitor at position C54. Yamasita discovered the way first[1]
LaitrKeiows and johnbock duplicated his efforts[2]
Method
C54
Method 1: reconstruct the traces (on the backside)
| 
|
Method 2: Bridge the traces (on the frontside)
