Hi,
I have had to order a new home button and flex for iPad 7 as original was broken.
The new button has arrived but the flex does not have the 90° fold in it. It is just one straight cable
The seller has advised that I just need to fold as original, but I am concerned this would damage cable.
Anyone have any advice on this?
Thanks
Is dit een goede vraag?

The original cable would have been put in in a similar manner, they are not manufactured with the fold in them. I would just be gentle, avoid a heavy crease.
You can see even in this picture, that there is some space near the fold itself, keeping it a bit rounded is probably ideal. I would fold and just apply some light pressure so it will hold its shape.

Thank you, I will try this ?
The old cable is completely folded flat with no space, which is why I was concerned about replicating. I will be gentle.
@mclarenchris Got it. I can understand your concern. I am similarly always worried about this sort of thing. Let us know how it goes.
But if the cable is of decent quality it shouldn't be a problem. Keep in mind it's still bits of wire going through these flex cables so should be flexible and hold its shape rather than just snap.
Worked great Alisha, no problems.
Thanks again
