Please Note

Every ripped connector repair is different. The final repair depends on the condition of the motherboard, including whether solder pads or PCB traces have been damaged. If additional work is required beyond a standard connector repair, we'll contact you with a quote before proceeding. No additional repairs will ever be carried out without your approval.
