These cables are often handled inappropriately and the connecting end can lift the track When pushed incorrectly into the pcb connector.
Yes, I would add the gate resistor for sure. It's seems to be hit and miss if these driver boards burn up. I had one that had worked fine for 10 years before it destroyed itself.

Hi Geoff
yes they are in a bad state - found bent contact strips on all cables. these cables are pretty weak and not well made.
I decided to pull the unit apart to check the driver board which is the original and from what i have been reading is prone to oscillation - do you think its worth while modifying with the resistor to prevent the oscillation occurring?
