When I opened it for the second time it realized I was serious and started working ;-)


Here are the pictures - I would still love a reply, since I understand this is usually a repeat problem. Here are photos of the two connectors. Thanks a lot.

Well, I hate to disappoint you after going to so much trouble, but... I don't know. I don't remember having seen such a connector. This comes as a bit of a shock to me, I think I'd better start wrecking some more gear! It doesn't look like it has a plastic slide cam that pulls out and releases a flat flexible pcb cable as I expected it might.

Sorry.

Hmm uffish, is that the cable at the top of the connector comming in at a 45=BA angle to the left? It's a little hard to tell from the pic. Does that brown piece on the top of the connector lever up? It looks like an older type of types currently seen that clamp down and can be popped up with a fingernail under the top edge. They pivot at the bottom edge where you see the possible hinge on the left and right. It's hard to tell since it's so fuzzy. Need closer pics and perhaps one of the other side of the connector on the right. Richard
