      That sort of u shaped (white part) is sort of floppy loose. Does it pry up allowing the cable to be removed? Just don't want to break anything.

          Slightly push the white part towards yourself and then you should be able to remove the cable.

            It doesn't really seem to move in that direction.

            I did manage to get the cable out by pushing down on the white part, but it still seemed to take a bit more tugging than i would have liked. It might be a case where you need a 3rd hand or shaped tool to push down on the white area while gently pulling on the LVDS cable. Not sure this was proper but it did seem to work. Always amazed at what engineers can manage to design.

            And thanks for the replies.

                  Here is a picture from shopjimmy, you can see which parts stay with the connector, pushing down on the white part likely releases the cable

                    Ah yes, I too was slightly embarrased when I was faced with one of those connectors at my new job at a service center which mostly fixes Sony, that was until my co-worker taught me: you push DOWN ("into" the board) onto the white U-shaped bit and pull the connector. Yes, it seems to take a bit more force than it ought to, but that's normal, as the cable seems to have some sort of reinforcing plastic foil on the end which keeps it rigid. Likewise, when you plug it back in, it clicks slightly to let you know you did it right and you don't need to do anything else. Cheers.

                      Samsung un82ru88000f - Boot loop sort of but can correct with taping of LVDS ribbon
                      by NolesFan
                      Hello all... TV started boot looping. Opened the back panel and tried to isolate the problem. Just PSB no boot loop. PSB and MB no boot loop. Plug in the LVDS from panel to MB and boot looping starts up. It doesnt matter of order that I plug the LVDS ribbons back in, only 1 and no boot loop but as soon as 2nd one plugs in boot looping. I then noticed a flicker on the screen when I was closing the clip on the harness to the LVDS. Shut the lights off so I can see better, and I noticed as i slowly close it, I will get a picture, but as soon as it clips in, I lose picture and booting happens. So I...

                      Problem

                      This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                      Hi. Recently serviced a damaged A1466 Macbook Air. Thought to post the issues and resolution for each.

                      Macbook AIR Model A1466 Diagnostic 09-01-2021

                      Issue: Liquid damaged (beer spill) Macbook AIR will not power up.


                      Problems & Resolutions

                      1) Attached Apple magsafe power adapter. No green / no orange light. This confirms the absence of the PP3V42_G3H voltage rail. The PP3V42_G3H rail is the primary voltage rail necessary to communicate with the magsafe power adapter to report the green or orange light status to the end user....

                      Cable Repair
                      by Patch2
                      I have a broken connector (believe it's a 6 pin mini-DIN) on a cable. The metal shroud and all but one of the pins are separated from the cable, and just stuck together for the photo. The other end is an unknown rectangular connector. The cable is for the foot pedals on an Italian made electronic piano, and the company is out of business. Looking for ideas on how to fix it. I have a soldering iron, but I'm not very skilled at soldering, so getting a retrofit for the broken end may be beyond my ability. The other end would be easier to replace, if I could get a mini-DIN cable with the same number...
