Fixing broken solar panels

[Project Pluto]

Landed a probe on Eve. During descent, I accidentally hit the wrong action key and deployed my solar panels instead of my parachute. Needless to say, the solar panels did not slow my descent, rather decided to disintegrate! First mistake. Second mistake was not utilizing F5 prior to entering the atmosphere.

I think I recall reading somewhere sometime ago that it's possible to go into my game save file and locate the solar panels in the vessel and change their status from "broken" to "working". I tooled around in it, but could not find anything that resembled their status. Am I mistaken, or am I not looking for the right line of code?

Any assistance is appreciated!

It should definitely be in your persistent.sfs file, I've pulled the same dirty trick with a Minmus base that tilted a bit too far on landing Just searching it for 'broken' should find it.
