Hi
New to this forum, so first I want to say hello to you all and introduce myself. My name is Paul from Kent and I urgently need some help and advice with a circuit board problem. Now I'm not a electronics geek, just a handy guy who can turn my hands to most things.
I bought a motorhome last year for my family and discovered it had major water damage, so spent a year renovating it, loads of work. Almost finished but recently discovered that the main 12v/240v Power Management and Charging unit as been bodged by previous owner (owners) and as melted housing connectors, and modification made by soldering wires directly to circuit board.
I have took the unit apart to have a closer look at what is what, using solder braid removed the contacts from the broken (melted) connectors and have new ones ready to refit and re-solder.
My Question is: as you can see by the attached photo's, one of the jacks as been badly damaged due to fire (heat) and the hole for the pin to pass through as been made larger and also the circuit board surface as been damaged.
Can this be repaired? and if so what is the best way of going about it?
