I broke my ribbon cable opening my wii. The peice on the end of the ribbon itself is gone, so all I take left is the flat ribbon. My wii works fine when i slide the ribbon in and tape it down nicely. But this comes undone rather quickly. Im trying to think of a permanent fix..

I was thinking of taping it downward really well and then hotgluing it in?

Or possibly jamming some paper or paper-thin in the slit above the ribbon to go on it down then tape it down

Anyone know of any better ideas? Any feedback for these?

I got my wiikey installed and working, now I merely want my wii to piece of work 24/7

I doubt that Nintendo uses a proprietary clip. Yous might want to take information technology to an electronics shop and see what they say. If it's a common prune you lot tin probably simply get a new brown piece and clip it in. Where do you lot live?

those kinds of cables are often used in laptops. i'm not sure how many pins the wii cable has, but you might exist able to go to a estimator shop that has some quondam, disrepair laptops they might permit you effort to salvage one from. i've seen them on keyboards, lcds, and touchpads most commonly, just some laptops use them for power buttons and other things also. i imagine if you discover 1 that is a bit too broad (too many wires), you lot could only trim it a flake. but a thought.

If y'all broke the cable housing, then you have the easy manner, and the correct way.

Easy way: line up the ribbon in its socket, press down, hot glue, hope information technology keeps contact.

Right way: buy a replacement FFC (flat flex cable) housing and supplant the connector. I don't know off manus how many pins in that connector, but here is a button in the right management.

I broke the clip from a PS2 controller cablevision once, and had to supersede the 36-pin housing. Information technology's another job not for the inexperienced.

I'm non sure to sympathize how y'all broke the ribbon. The ribbon is flat and has always been that mode, there's nothing at the tip of it? You simply slide the ribbon in the connector and so shut the "lid" of the connector?

hmmm

so does the ribbon need to make contact on the bottom or the top? I notice pins on the top too I think on the wii board..

Just trying to figure out my best risk of gluing this sucker downwards and hoping to god it works...
