Replacing the connectors is worth a try for sure, removing them and replacing them is not difficult with the right equipment. Are you in Alabama? I gather from your username that you are an Alabama fan. If so, I may be close to you and will be glad to help you replace the connectors. I am in the Montgomery area.


Yes sir. Live in Tuscaloosa. Also routinely in the Birmingham area on weekdays.
I believe I read two options. Solder wire directly to that pin in PCB connector. Which I could probably manage.
But I'd rather have it fixed the right way with replacing. I've read getting the old connector to de-solder is difficult for a novice due to the pins pulling the heat away.
So the right fix for this may be out of my scope of practice.
