What is this thing called ?

  • What is this thing called ?? http://www.flickr.com/photos/78634247@N03/6894165074/in/photostream and how could i put it back to this ?? http://www.flickr.com/photos/78634247@N03/6894166390/in/photostream i was disassembling my laptop to clean the vents and fan when this thing i accidentally ripped it off :( it is the keyboard connector

  • Answer:

    I don't want to disappoint you, but that black thing is supposed to hold keyboard connector in the nest on the motherboard and when you pulled out that cable without opening that black thing first, you've simply broke it. You can put it back when you'll assemble your laptop, but it will not hold the cable tight enough in the nest.

That's the ribbon cable for your laptops keyboard, clamp it back in it's slot if you want to be able to use your keyboard. After looking at picture 2, looks like you broke it. Oh, well, there is a machine somewhere in China that put those on. Best of luck. Looks like you'll need to buy a new keyboard or plug in a usb keyboard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Iyq8k-miaA&feature=related
