Faulty usb-port - repairable?
The usb-port no longer connects with the usb-cable contact when used as normal. If I push the contact/cable upwards a bit, the connection works.

It's been like this quite some time so I'm pretty much used to it, I just place something a bit higher than the reader in front of it having the cable resting on that.

Just curious if someone knows any way to correct this? Or has seen this problem before? (I have searched several times but I don't have the best of luck with searches here.)

My Aura HD is about two years and I have reconnected it many, many times (but not close to the standard 10000 cycles it should endure).
