It's not an issue of a loose chip or connector as I had removed the board from the case to work on it at the bench, and reseated them all there. The voltages are all measured within spec. The...

3 years late, but, since I'm currently in the process of trying to fix my 1960, I wrote down the value of each cap (all 54 of them) as I removed it. Hope this helps!

I can't understand why they won't just sell them as kits to be assembled by the user, with no warranty. Soldering one of these together could even be accomplished by the most ham-fisted of n00bs.

I had asked them that about 3 months ago, and, got a resounding no. Maybe your asking will lend more weight to it. I wouldn't even need them to solder anything, as long as the USB chip isn't BGA.
