The original port was damaged so I could not use it to fix the old one. Also the fix was much easier with the new port because the pins were longer. In the old one they were "under" it so a proper connection could have been more difficult.



Ordering a port online could have been a good idea but I did not want to wait nor receive a port that would not have been any use for this project.

The best alternative is to rely on warranty or not to break/yank the original at all
