Can’t complete front panel replacement. Home button & digitizer ribbon cables won’t let me close front panel against chassis. Any suggestions how to place those ribbon cables so they are not on the way?
Is this a good question?

Is it the Touch Screen flex cable that is on the way preventing to proper assembly?
If yes, they go “hidden” behind the LCD and a little part goes hidden “inside” the chassis.
Is tricky and very hard to explain in words how to do it. I would recommend to look up for some videos “iPad Mini 3 Screen Replacement” and attention to details, this is the most important one.
Good luck!

Make sense. You can tell how bended original cables was. I’ll try to fit them underneath chassis empty space.

Yeah it’s really tricky. Just to be safe I used heat gun to make ribbon cables more flexible and accurately fit cables underneath chassis and digitizer fit perfectly in place .
