Hope someone can help me find replacement ribbon cable connectors. I broke 2 of them trying to assemble. Does anyone have part numbers for replacements?

Thank you,

Mark

I typically use my woodworking vice for even clamping pressure. I pair of typical slip-jaw pliers can work very well, by setting the jaws wide, then slowly compressing the connector, little by little, moving back and forth across the connector (two or three passes should do it).

I place the connector in a vice and carefully apply pressure
very controlled action and even pressure
best
