    Being the idiot, I did not see this before attempting removal of cable. I broke the connector away from the motherboard. Laptop works, just not on battery.

    BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN REMOVING CONNECTOR. I would suggest holding down the cable (white part), then lift metal up. Cable moves out when two black end stubs are cleared by the white connector. Anyone know how I can a replacement to solder back on?

    The metal peace actually slides back, so DO NOT PRY UP. just move the metal piece away from the white cable.

    The white connector lifts up off the black one when freed from the black tabs. Don’t try to pull it away horizontally.
