I would not bridge it (short) if I was you. leave it as is for now and see if the unit functions. Cxxx means capacitor no resistor and shorting out where it used to be will bridge something you do not want to bridge.

It says Cxxx but it looks awfully like a resistor - extremely small. On the other side is a capacitor though.

SMT resistors and capacitors look virtually identical and often don't have markings on them (capacitors especially). If it has a Cxxx code on the silkscreen then it's fairly safe to assume that it's a capacitor...
