I just purchased a Taxi knowing that the GI isn't working. I quickly found that the GI Input J6 was burned pretty bad. From what I can tell this is a common problem (also noticed minor damage at J9 and J10, also common). I have a friend with some soldering skills, but is this type of damage repairable by a non-professional? Unfortunately, I can't find any reproduction ICBs for Taxi. Great Lakes Modular sells System 11 ICBs, but not for Taxi. I'm a bit concerned that I only have one chance at fixing this since a replacement is not readily available. Thanks for the advice!
Do I need a professional or is this something my friend and I can handle?
