When removing tape from my touch screen ribbon, I accidentally tore the ribbon from connector. Is there a way to splice a new ribbon on it, or must I tear down the entire tab and replace screen and all? I'm an extreme novice, yet a brave one! I'm a 54 year old woman who didn't grow up with electronics unless Atari counts! LOL Thanks in advance! Youtube is my friend!

A lot of people will say no it's not possible. I would say it is possible but extremely difficult and I would not recommend it. First, it is more a temporary fix and likely may break over time especially if not using solder. The traces in the ribbon cables are so fine that it requires very good magnification and a very steady hand. I have seen a few people splice ribbon cables on YouTube if you really wish to attempt it. I've seen them scrape away the plastic layer to expose the tracks/traces and then either use very fine wire and solder and the solder the wires to the exposed tracks to make a splice or I've seen a person scrape both edges where the cable tore and then used a type of conductive wire glue and over lapped the edges to where the tracks lined up perfectly and used the conductive adhesive/wire glue to joint the tracks individually. Either way is very time consuming and takes strong magnification and a very steady hand. I've attempted both ways and gave up, but may attempt it again eventually. I will link at least one video from YouTube so you can get an idea if it's something you wish to attempt. I say it never hurts to try. Most will say it is not possible but anything is possible with the right mindset.

Or go to YouTube and search for ribbon cable splicing or flex cable splicing to find more videos. Best of luck on your repair.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, I have terrible old age farsightedness, a shaky hand and not a ton of patients! Will I need to remove everything from the tab to replace screen? Motherboard, cameras, et al? It may be better, since I have the parts, to call around to price getting it done for me! Thanks again. Your answer was EXACTLY what I was looking for! Too bad they can't connect the ribbon to the screen with a connector so you could just replace that part!
