Jd Ezb Losing Power Connection If Bumped Or Jolted

I was very fortunate to pick up a used Six and a JD from Ebay for $350 total. The kits are in good shape. My JD robot EZB appears to be disconnecting from the battery if you bump the EZB or it does a move that jars the robot too much Is there some trick to keep it from disconnecting? Can the EZB be removed and re-seated into JD's back?

Jd - Jerky Movement

Hi, I purchased the JD Humanoid kit four days ago. The first two days I built the robot, calibrated the servos, saved a servo profile, and started to play around with the functionality (movement, dances, Roboscratch) without any issues.
