Hi, I have the same problem and ordered a new cable for my early 2009 macbook. The problem is the socket which the cable attaches to onto on the motherboard broke off and i cant find it to solder it back on. Does anyone know where I could get a replacement socket? By the way this this is not my motherboard but the socket is an exact match. Thanks Gerry
You need a logic board repair and it’s not easy, I certainly wouldn’t attempt it. Apple will fix it for a flat rate fee of $280.
