Emonbase - same setup as EmonPi?

This discussion has now melded with my older post: Unable to see emonTx inputs

I have just tried swapping the RFM12Pi in the photo (version 2.6) with an older version (2.5.3) from another system, and I can now see Inputs!

Suggests that the RFM12Pi v2.6 might be damaged (doesn’t look good on the photos!)? I also noticed the LED didn’t flash.

Possible solve? Any way to resurrect the dead module?
