I have a Thinkpad T480, trying to replace the screen
The connector from the Laptop will NOT fit into the receptacle connector on the new screen. I have tried for hours. What do do?
Is this a good question?

Hi @todd85559
You may have got the wrong screen.
Depending on whether you got a FHD (Full High Definition 1920 x 1080) or a HD (High Definition 1280 x 720) will mean either a 40 pin or 30 pin cable connection between the motherboard and the LCD panel
Here's the parts list for the laptop.
Click on Select Commodity > LCD panels (16) to find the part number for all the LCD panels that are available. The screen type is shown in the panel description e.g. FHD or HD.
Usually the Lenovo part number is somewhere on the back of the original LCD panel if you wish to verify
Search online using the part number only to find suppliers
Here's the hardware maintenance manual that may also help.
