Thanks,
ill contact HPL.

ill have to kindly put down the offer, my grandpa is an expert at soldering, as he worked for Northrop Grumman, and he said that he could do it but it would take about a week. im just looking for another ribbon cable.

alright well sice my ribbon cables kaput, does anybody have an extra for sale?

thx but i already tried heating it but the entire cable is disconnected from the actual chip. the right eye works fine, but the left showed nothing. i heated it and put it back, and all i got were lotss of scan lines on the left eye. the transistors cant properly read the completly unhooked cable that was reconnected. any other ideas?

hi, I just joined, and my VB was showing no display on the left eye whatsoever. i opened it up, baked it it at 255 degrees f and now it only shows scan lines and glitches up the other eye. it may be that i didnt line it up perfectly, because this was an extreme case where the cable had completely disconnected from the chip. Any ideas for a better fix? i also am thinking of just buying another cable, if anyone has one.
