Step 4
• To disconnect the cable, use the fine tweezers to flip up the small retaining flap. Then, you can safely pull the ribbon cable out.
• Be sure you are prying up on the hinged retaining flap, not the connector itself.
• The zero insertion force (ZIF) connector is used to secure delicate ribbon cables, such as this trackpad cable.

Step 5
• Remove the colored power cable from its connector.
• To disconnect it safely, use the pointed tip of a spudger to carefully push on each side of the connector.
• Alternating from one side to the other, gently “walk” the connector out of its socket.
• Be sure to be very gentle when prying colored wires from motherboard to ensure that there is no damage.
