Now assemble the replacement PMV cable to the two metal brackets.

Each button has on its underside two tiny black plastic pegs which fit into holes in the metal frames, to ensure the proper fit. Make sure to line these up properly when attaching the cable to the metal frames. The reassembled cable should look as shown in the figures.

Install the new cable working from the power switch back towards the mute and volume switches and then to the cable connector, snaking the PMV cable along its complicated path.

The replacement part should have adhesive patches to hold the cable in place.

Attaching the rectangular cable connector is tricky as there is little clearance from the edge of the iPad case. It may be helpful to use a plastic opening tool to push it gently until it snaps into place.
