Frequently Asked Questions
What is Advanced Trace Repair?
When an HDMI port or connector is yanked out, it can rip the copper traces on the motherboard. Advanced trace repair re-runs broken traces using micro-soldering under a microscope. Used when a simple port swap won’t work because the board itself is damaged.
When is this needed?
After a forceful cable yank, drop with cable inserted, or repeated port swap failures. If a standard HDMI port replacement doesn’t resolve the issue, trace repair usually does.
How long does trace repair take?
2-4 business days due to precision work. Mail-in: 5-7 business days.
What’s the success rate?
90%+ for HDMI port traces. Lower for severe board damage but still usually repairable.
Is this an add-on?
Yes — typically used in conjunction with an HDMI port replacement when the board is damaged. Standalone repair only when a port has already been replaced and the issue persists.
