Exxos will like this colour of Switch Lite :)

You have the flexible cable upside down. It folds back on itself.

Scroll down to see the installation images.

Looks from that connector to be the same as mine, which is a Hwfly Lite v4, the one you linked to earlier in the thread.

Maybe there are different top ribbon cables depending upon the board revision?

I think it's more a case of the cable is supposed to be bent in the middle somehow after looking at the images @alexh linked to. Gonna have another look later but need to pack my work stuff up ready for my office day tomorrow, then I'm off training...

Will try to look later this evening.

Yeah. looks like you solder it to pads with it with the connector facing right and then bend it over to connect the power, ground and possibly another connection. Could they have made it more complicated and difficult? Not sure. :-)

Yeah, it's really quite a tricky job compared to the CPU connector. I 'think' I have figured it out from the pic, but not 100%.

It's not as tricky as it looks. And once you've laid it out you should see how elegant the solution is. It is all because they didn't want to have multiple layers in the film.

Definitely one for doing under the microscope!

As it goes I just had a closer look, and TBH it is certainly doable though requiring quite a steady hand!!!

I'm not going to do it on the working switch, I have almost all the parts to get a 2nd Switch up and so providing I can do that, it'll go in that one.
