Completed a battery replacement and the battery now works but the trackpad and the keyboard don't. I can send pictures if necessary.
Thanks!
Edit: Here’s a picture of the MacBook, I’m happy to add any more if needed.
Is dit een goede vraag?

Update: It turned out to be the trackpad cable! It didn’t look ripped or anything but replacing it made the keyboard and trackpad work again.

@bananagranny - It looks like you damaged one of the battery connectors. Review step10 images in this guide MacBook Pro 13" Twee Thunderbolt-poorten eind 2020 Vervanging van de batterij

I was worried something bad would happen when I broke that. Didn't know that even the battery connector can mess up the trackpad/keyboard. Is there any way to fix it?
@bananagranny - You’ll need to find someone to replace the connector. This is a tricky repair unless you have the correct tools and skills.
@danj Would that mean soldering a new connector?
@bananagranny - Yes, and access to the needed part.
@danj Is it technically possible for me to use something to push down the pins so the keyboard and trackpad will be functional? Thank you for your help so far.
