Chosen Solution
Currently my 2.53 GHz logic board has a faulty ram slot. I have cleaned both slots and inserted and removed ram out of the bad one multiple times. Can I upgrade to a better Logic board? If so, what’s my best option?
First try backing the screws that hold the RAM slot mechanism off a quarter of a turn each and test again. Put a 4 GB in the working slot. The one that’s not working will sometimes take a lessor stick. You may be able to use this one, they are both A1278 boards, but I have not seen it listed as compatible.

No point really. You could find one on eBay but it is not going to be a big improvement. Can you get the largest sized ram for just 1 slot?
would it be possible to replace the port? someone like luis rossman could possibly replace the port here is his site: https://www.rossmanngroup.com/
