Hi Gary,

If my assumption is correct, you have bare copper card edge fingers on your PCB assemblies. This can be fixed per IPC 7721B Modification and Repair 4.6.3 Edge Contact Repair, Plating Method. To see the procedure you can check-out the link below:

Hope this helps.

Subject: [TN] Edge connector repair

Good morning all,

 

Here's the scenario - I have assemblies that should have Ni/Au plating
on edge connector but don't; the assemblies are built; can repairs be
made?

 

Thanks in advance,
