I used some scotch tape to tape it in place at the point that was torn. When I went to put the case back on, the power died again because the top case compressed the stress point that ripped in that connector causing it to short and kill the power. It was at a "Y" in the connector near the top where the HD gets plugged in, so it was hard to detect and barely noticeably. When I peeled back the connector to get it off of the old hard drive, I accidentally ripped it. ![]() The problem was the thin little HDD flex connector that powers the HD.
