I am error
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello! I am in need of some help.. I Jailbroke my console the other day and when putting it back together I heard something snap.
It was the connector for the Power And Eject ribbon cable. The connected and pins had broken off. Is there anyway I can fix this? I need the Power & Eject button to work!! Thanks

This does not sound good, maybe look on ebay, amazon for a new eject or power button ribbon or just buy a whole new ps3. but to save money just buy the power and eject thing together on ebay or amazon.

hope this helps

There's a couple of sites that sell replacement cables for the slim, like Ifixit...

I honestly don't know how everyone missed what you typed. You broke the header off the motherboard. If you ripped the copper traces on the motherboard you may have to make new ones or find an alternative. You'll obviously need to know how to solder.
