Get an old tooth brush and dip it in Isopropyl alchohol (or Nail varnish remover), then clean contacts, wipe dry. Then re-solder the connections on underside of the box. Should work after you re-seat the simm.
Failing that, fell a tree, hew a suitable branch into shape, then insert into position in box!!! lmfao
