Ecc question.

Re: Ecc question.
Sounds like the foil was put in there to make up for poor connections between the connector and the pins.
When you removed it the connection was lost.
Removing the pins from the connector and tighteningthem to fit better would solve the problem.
Not a fun chore but IMO it will save you trouble later.
They WILL be shaking loose and causing you trouble if not corrected.
