I measured resistance and the pin on the left does not have any, so it's blown then.
The onther pin measures about 1.1MOhms.
I read it's recommended to coat the pins with solder to make better contact, because I had this problem too when you inset the cart the printer throws an error you re-insert it ant it works fine. Remove it and again you have to insert it numerous times to work. The contacts a clean, so where is the problem then???
The solder coating was very easy, let's see how it turns out. I coated PG-40 as I have a few and just try to make unclog them.

It's really easy to do, might look complicated but it's not harder than to solder a resistor.
