Inverter replacement socket problem

I just replaced the inverter and now I've started reassembling, starting back thru the steps; got to 32 - replacing the antenna cables and the inverter cable socket;

the issue is with the socket; it doesn't seem to have anyplace to plug back into; the instructions say to be careful not to pull the whole thing off the board; so...

1. I'd like to figure out how to plug it back in where it doesn't look like there's a place to plug it back into

2. I'd like to know if there's a 'fix' for where you've pulled the whole thing off - if that's what I did;

irvinebobb, your connector is definitely off the board. Check the connector from the inverter and see if it is on that end. The only way to fix that is by soldering to connector back on. From your images it looks like your solder pads are still intact so it should be a straight forward repair.

Bob,

I would like to see a picture with the connector end in focus. It looks intact so should be do-able. Thanks for the email. I should be able to handle this for you.
