Replacing the USB port on an RK-9000
« on: Fri, 28 March 2014, 22:23:09 »
My RK-9000's port just went belly up. Looking around I see that it is not an uncommon occurance.
I would like to order replacement ports from Amazon ( mainly because I have a gift card burning a hole in my pocket ).
I am however not certain of the replaement part itself.

This seems to be right:

except that it has 4 legs not two, so I will have to amputate two legs.

This however is described as a type B port, and I've seen on another thread that the port is type AB. So is this the correct port?
