I said that Gold melting point is low, but it is about 1000C, the problem is that this "gold wire" is an alloy and when you add solder it melts very easily.

This is why the manual and yellow caution label on the side tells folks never to hold the body while making connections. Hard to do sometimes since its just so tempting but this seems to be a possible case of that bad habit. Not 100% sure though. How the other wire didn't break is a mystery. Nice fix though. Great explanation as always.

maybe, there is also a warning label not to unscrew front connector. need to do a short video with matched wire to see how close to spec it is
