Just found some free time and finally sorted the power connector issue... :D
I have now a nice standard and fully working power connector !
Now it's time to sort other issues and then start my new mods.
Thank you all guys for your precious advises and useful information.
Cheers.

Sure.
One track was problematic as there was no continuity for some reasons...
Once the track repaired, everything was alright.
I think the board was tampered, as I also had to repair some ugly solder joints.
