Kevin Mullins:
Yeah, I just don't see the other end of it hanging around anywhere.
(not in any of those pics anyways)

ChadTower:

I guess it would be in the harness... unless they did it outside the harness going back to the AR board and they didn't put the other half back in.  Either way that should be a fairly straightforward thing to undo by repairing the original connector.

Kevin Mullins:
Agreed.

Which is why I was asking for a good pic of the pcb edge...... just to see what shape it's in at the moment.

You know how it goes... one guy does one thing, another comes behind and does something else, then who knows where it came from and what's been done in between.
Heck, someone may have repaired the edge and was just too lazy to undo the other guys stuff.
Seen it happen all too often, working on a bunch of those right now as a matter of fact. (what a mess)
 

Pop Culture Portal:
My camera is suddenly on the fritz so I tried some scans instead.  I may need to find my wife's camera...





ChadTower:

Those edge traces look like someone tried to repair them but didn't get it working.  Probably because the issue was the connector pin and not so much the edge contact.  So they bypassed it instead.  Weird route to take.
