Hi there,
I have a Toshiba Satellite Radius P55W-B5220 laptop. After a week of it not turning on, I opened it up to find that the ribbon cable between my power button and motherboard had connectors that were snapped in half. Calling Toshiba resulted in their pushing me off onto a third party, who said they would repair it for, well, a lot, who then said they wouldn't sell the ribbon cable.
I've got a picture of the problem down at the bottom.
Is there any way I could possibly repair this little guy? I was thinking solder but I don't know if my hands are that steady. I'd also like to see if anyone knows of any repair places for these. Thanks!

It needed to be taped into place. But it's running!
