Paul is right! NO WD40, wrong stuff!!!!!!
The chips can be reseated by GENTLY twisting the baords and pushing the
chips back into the sockets (I know, but it works. note gently!), or just
firmly pushing on the chips first on one end and then the other. I've also
observes chips with one pin buckled during manufacture insertion that
managed to work and then lose connection, so look carefully at pin
engagement.
