Mac G4 MDD motherboard

Hi All,
please can anyone help with identifying the power pins on the G4 MDD board, there are 2 rows of pins with Power, Reset, NMI written alongside ie 4 pins against each title but not sure which row of pins to short to start computer, reason is front panel board switch appears to be faulty, image showing pins to short would be good, thanks
 
I just tried on my working MDD. The results are weird. I couldn't get it to boot jumping any of the pads in any x or y direction. It's possible I have heavy oxidation (did try to scrape the pads a bit). I didn't try jumping diagonal.
 
Strange, (sorry btw I meant the pads not the pins) I thought these pads were similar to other mboards which have + and - usually written on them to identify which ones to jump, but not apple, the pads seem to be in a row of 2 x 2 pads with Power, Reset and NMI written against, but no indication of which ones to jump to start the machine.
Other way may be if anyone can identify which of the 10 pins on the mboard socket from the front board panel to jump to bypass the front power switch?
