Thank you. It was quite a coincidence that I found this because I had just purchased that fix it repair tool kit. It was pretty handy that I had it all right here in front of me. Thanks again you made it easy.
Hi @martilynn, thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad that the guide was useful for your repair.
Actually not necessary to remove the interconnect cable, and I wish I had not. Instructions do not include reassembly.
