this was the case with myself so I ended up having to solder the thing back on  |
I broke mine off accidently(don't ask
) about 2 years ago shortly after getting the box.It worried me greatly at the time(boxes were very expensive then). I've managed perfectly well without it but I'm amazed you have been able to solder it back on as the wires are so close together.You must be very experienced at this type of work. I thought about getting it done professionally but never did.In the furure if anything goes wrong with the box and I need to use the top circuit board, I'll just get a replacement box.
