Hi

I’m new on here and not a professional, I was wondering what is the correct name for this type of connector, it’s from a hood extractor and as you can see the ribbon is burnt so it needs replacing,
Thanks in advance

 

Probably a custom PCB edge connector, the PCB side may have to be custom made by a board producer, there are many out there, a schematic capture program could be used to mock it up..

Welcome to AAC.

That is a custom PCB Edge Connector.

You can replace it if the manufacturer has parts. Failing that, you could theoretically reproduce it. However. assuming replacement parts are not available, repairing the traces—the copper tracks on the circuit board—is possible.

Beat me by seconds, Max. I think the hardest part would be cutting it. However, I should add, it is important to figure out why it burned or it might just happen again as soon as it is plugged in. It is unlikely the board itself is the root cause of its own demise.

 

I agree with Max and Yaakov as it looks to be an edge card connector of sorts, likely custom. However, since it is just a passive connector the damage you see is likely only a symptom. Something, likely very high current, caused the burning and failure so you are looking at a symptom. Even if you found another or made another it would likely burn up until you find the cause. There is a reason it burned up. You need to find the cause of the symptom you are seeing.

hi,
Its most likely the mating connector is also burnt/molten, so just changing that PCB part may not get the job done.

Is it possible to use a different kind of connector to do the job?
