Hi guys,

Anyone know how to fix broken DIMM slot on a 2009 Macbook Pro? Usual causes / potential causes of issues and how to repair it without outright buying a replacement motherboard? I have zero soldering experience or anything like that.. But I have two Macbook Pro 2009's with only the lower / bottom DIMM working and would like to know if its possible to repair it? I haven't had much luck finding guides or information online.

Thanks!
