Unsure if im not supposed to install the trim pot or not in the blues power. Hole has solder in it. Wasnt my doing.
</p>
The hole on the bottom looks as if it was untouched like the hole was just covered
Yes, remove the solder and install the trimmer normally.
As practice I would try to mount the Pot wiring flush to the board. You can still do that by standing the board and holding it on edge with one hand while simultaneously pushing the wire forward (with the same hand) and heating the backside of the pads with your iron. It should then slip through flush. Obviously take your time. As for solder droplets it is quite common for solder bits to fall off onto a board while working on a project. You wouldn’t hear it happening. One tiny bump and you have to clean it up. It happens to all of us all of the time.
