Help!
Just realized that I have an issue with one of the connector sockets on the backbox interconnect board on my Taxi (Board is part D-12185-553).
The 2J7 socket is damaged. The plastic around pins 9 and 10 is broken off and missing. When I unplugged the connector, pin 9 came away with the wiring connector. (Whoa!)
Plugged it back in (carefully) and suprisingly everything still works. As noted, the board mounted half of the connector is physically broken and the pin 9-10 area plastic is missing. The other half of the connector (the wired end) is slightly toasted in this area, and the connection runs pretty warm when plugged in and running.
How serious is this? What do I do about it?
I suspect that repair is needed. I am not a proficient solder artist. I can barely solder lamp sockets in place and have no desire to fool around with board work. A quick google search did not turn up many parts references to the board and those were out of stock and/or $100+.
Suggestions and advice would be appreciated.
