You are talking about the cracked solder joints in the background correct?

If you are near Sac, I can fix that in about 5 mins or so.

Are you sure there were pins in those ports? Where they attach to the PCB looks really clean, like nothing was ever soldered there.

You are correct, those ports look unused. Look at the back row of pins, where they meet the board. You can see where the solder joints have cracked on at least 3 of them.

Correct it's the back pins that have cracked. It looks like that all but 2 on the back have cracked. Sac is kinda far for me but thanks
