Is there any way to repair the LCD backlight cable?
Tekst:
This is definitely a long shot, but I figured I'd see if anyone had some creative solutions. I salvaged a replacement LCD/Digitizer/Touch Screen for my first gen iPhone. The problem is with the LCD portion. There's a small ribbon cable along the right side that is severed and barely hanging together. I'm guessing that one of the ribbon wires is for the LCD and the other is for the backlight because I'm able to tape it in place just enough to get the LCD portion to work and everything works except the backlight. I have an extra cable laying around and was wondering if there was someway I could attach the two similar to attaching two wires together without having to actually remove the connection to the LCD because I know there's pretty much no way to mess with that connection without destroying the LCD. Probably gonna have to just replace the entire thing...
