The Hic board on the MSX2 can suffer from corrosion due to capacitor leaks, and traces and the pads can also easily lift and break. If this occurs, it is recommended to transfer the parts over to this new PCB along with a recap.
These models of the MSX2 and the MSX2 Plus contain this Hic Board. - Sony HB-F1II - Sony HB-F1XD - Sony HB-F1XV - Sony HB-F1XDJ - Sony HB-F1XD MKII - Panasonic FS-A1 MKII - Panasonic FS-A1F - Kawai KMC-5000 (Panasonic FS-A1F OEM)
