Hello,
During the cleaning of my iMac 27" I accidentally damaged one of the top ribbon cables (the ones that connect the display to the little logic board attached to the lcd), is there anyway to replace this ribbon without soldering on the logic board?
It's the same problem as on this picture, same mac and the same mistake. Any ideas whether this is repairable?
Thanks.

faabamskeelb, that is not a LVDS cable. That is one of the TAB. LCD panels use TABs to connect to the driver boards. TABs are (tape automated bonding). It's called FFC/FPC. FFC is flexible flat cable, whereas FPC is flexible printed cable. This is what is referred to as the TAB's. Check Wikipedia if you need to get deeper into in. The repair of those is extremely difficult due to the size of it. Unless you have the ability and tools to microsolder, you will have to replace the LCD. Hope this helps, good luck.

That's very easily replaceable! Don't worry too much! I'll link a guide where you can fix it! It might be expensive but: iMac Intel 27" EMC 2390 Display Replacement

Thanks for your reply, but that's replacing the entire LCD right?
My question is whether it's possible to fix just that damaged cable so that I can still use this display assembly...
Not unless you can find the specific cable online, if you do, you can follow that guide in replacing it!
Yeah that's part of the problem, I do not know what that cable is called exactly.. I know how to take the iMac apart up to the point where you see the cable, but I'm wondering if it's even possible to replace it without doing some micro soldering... Thanks again for helping
Oh, that's called an LVDS cable
Don't forget, if this was helpful, to mark this answer as Accepted!
