Hi Aurelio, good work!
After getting this far, if I were you I would use a new 15 watt low power pen soldering iron to unplug the two wires.
Then remove that solder mess on the PCB. Clearly it was not correctly soldered.
Now you need a audio oscillator (I use my multimeter that has a built in 2Khz signal) to test the buzzer and make sure it works.
Then resolder the wires using a low melting point good quality solder, using adequate heating to make a good solder joint (if the soldering iron requires more than 2 seconds to make an good melting it means you are using a underpowered tool).
Good luck with it.
Jose, I bought a couple of years ago the soldering iron you'll see just I'll find it out, and maybe it will be helpful that, but I'm sure that my brother, who has hand better than mine, 'll be helpful as well Smile
