6 - PowerBook G4 (17-inch DLSD/1.67/1.5/1.33GHz) Troubleshooting
General Information
The cable is not secured straight.
Make sure that the alignment mark, if present, or metal edge of the contacts run parallel to
the connector. If the flex cable is inserted crooked, some signals may not be connected or
signals may short together.
Broken connectors on the flex cable
Some flex cables have connector plugs or sockets attached at their ends. These
connectors are fragile and their connections can easily break away from the flex cable if
the connector end is bent or too much force is used when disconnecting, making them
unusable. Some of these flex cable connectors may have a tab or pull loop to help remove
them. Those without can be removed by carefully rocking them from side to side.
Important: Do not bend the connector ends of these flex cables or pull up along the
narrow end of the connector.
Check to make sure that no part of the connector has separated from the cable.
