Title: Universal Space Panic - pins / edge connector woes Post by: lesoleil70 on April 03, 2015, 06:00:50 am Guys I have just picked up an "Untested" space panic PCB....I know, I know...Untested....I knew it was a gamble.
The PCB edge connection is worn back in some areas on the pins, meaning when I place the harness on it it's not making connection with the board. From the edge to the remaining parts of the connector is a gap of about 5mm on some of the pins. I do get contunuity from the pins to the components, so all is not lost, the board could be good. What do I do though to get the edge connector to the worn back pins...do I 1)place a thin track of solder on the pcb to extend the connection forward? 2)hard wire to the board 3) since I need to rewire the cabinet , probably Jamma for ease, should I hard wire a jamma adaptor to the board so at least I can remove the board. Ugh....options... I know I can get connections, just want some advice on the pro way to do it. Cheers guys..
