I don't think it's the connector, but it's junk if it isn't anyway, so I might
see. These things screw in place and the fit was tight getting it out so it
would boot again, so I don't think it wiggled. Still, would be nice to know a
source for spares because it seems like others on this list have had similar
problems with theirs.
