I did check for that .. and was pretty careful when moving stuff
about. I took the main board out and removed it from it's plastic fame
to give me good access all around. I carefully worked on it on my
antistatic mat (mainly so I didn't damage the friends table I was
working on) using my Weller thermostatic soldering station and
de-soldering pump. All the plugs were sized / polarised to make
incorrect re-fitting nearly impossible?

All the best ..
