how to open this type of flat cable connector?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP 24 I'm trying to replace a damaged flex cable in my ThinkPad W530 touchpad assembly but I can't seem to figure how to open these 2 connectors and I'm scared of exerting any force on it for fear of breaking it. Any clues? connector share | improve this question edited Feb 12 at 15:16 Braiam 4,057 3 18 52 asked Feb 11 at 19:33 Raif Atef Raif Atef 399 3 11 The resolution quality of the image is extremely poor, however, the connector is soldered onto the motherboard. The cable looks like it pulls away from the connector, but it is difficult to tell, from the supplied image. – Ramhound Feb 11 at 19:38 1 @Ramhound I know it can be opened because I've seen someone open it before on this particular board. The cable does pull away but there's a part that locks/unlocks it. – Raif Atef Feb 11 at 19:40 2 @Ramhound added better photos – Raif Atef
