I'd be expecting maybe it's more than just that WE not making contact. I've had success in the past removing Agnus and with a pin or needle gently pulling out at each socket pin so that it makes more tension when reinserted. That and give the Agnus legs and socket pins a good scrub with contact cleaner.

If WE is stuck high but floating at U35 it could mean:
* other Agnus pins not making proper contact
* dead Agnus

Pretty much rules out a short if it's floating at U35 :/

If you can get a hold of another Agnus to test that would help rule it out, otherwise you might get lucky just cleaning or if not replacing the plcc socket.
