    Sigh I was swapping out a very very swollen battery and I guess I clipped my cable just like you did. Why did they have to tape it so that it was invisible?? So difficult to work on our own stuff...

      Right!? :( I think it was covered in foam for "rattle-proofing" reasons, but it did make it impossible to see.

      Parece que ambos usan un cable de 13 pines, así que ¿tal vez? Encontré esto: www.ebay.com/itm/276046225138?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28

    Jessee, I have just cut this cable trying to remove from the back the battery in my jbl flip 4. That's the second time I am changing the battery in this flip 4. The reason not buying 5 or 6 is that is missing the microphone on them and I can't use these newer speakers for calls. The first time I have removed pulling it but this time I remove it push it from back so I have cut the ribbon cable. The problem is that I can't find any new cable online to order it Can you confirm please is a cable with 13 pins? If you remember.. Thanks,Florin

      Hi Florin! Apologies for the slow reply; I was traveling for the cicada emergence :) It is a 13-pin cable; I got mine here, and it looks like they're still in stock: a.co/d/cZWh4IJ Good luck with your repair!

      ​​@@jesseesmith4463 Thank you for your reply. I finally succeed to replace the cable. Let me tell you how 😂 I had a not working Acer laptop and I found a 20 pin cable inside and I cut it all along to 13 and fit it, can you believe the speaker is working veeery well 😄 It was a difficult job because the pins are something like nano pins 😂 but I did it. The speaker after the first and one only charge from Sunday its still playing today after 5 days, has play like 3h/day roughly on half volume. I like Flip 4 because I use it for calls but 5 and 6 doesn't has a microphone fitted. did you get any cicada ? 😂

    • @jesseesmith4463
      @jesseesmith4463 Рік тому

      If you scrape off the insulating foam (if there is foam on your cable), the cable type should be printed on the existing cable in several places. (Sorry, I can't disassemble my own speaker to find out because some of the screws are stripped :(

    Thanks. I had cut through a foam strip to remove the old battery easier. Only after rewatching a repair video did I notice a bare cable, which did not seem to be present in my speaker, and I realised what I had done. That foam housed this very cable. I'm a little annoyed at myself, and the fact I have buy another component, but this video is a life saver. Thank you so much.

    • @jesseesmith4463
      @jesseesmith4463 Рік тому

      That's pretty much what I did! I didn't see the cable because of the black foam insulation and accidentally broke it. (I am not actually any kind of tech wizard - just somebody who doesn't like to throw out stuff that can be fixed!) I'm so glad you found the video useful :)

      @jesseesmith4463 Рік тому

      That's a bummer...you could try replacing the whole connector (I Googled "flat ribbon cable connector" and many are available), but that might require soldering skills. Alternatively, if the cable has good contact and is working, you could just try securing it in place by some other means, maybe with tape or a small clamp?
