Ribbon Cable
 
So I finally got the CCFL replaced in my RCA L32HD32D. After replacing the CCFL, I hooked everything up to make sure I had the problem fixed and that everything was working before I put the set back together. Worked great. But apon reassembly, I damaged the small ribbon cable and now I got squat for a picture. I've looked online for a replacement, but can't seem to find one. I'm not even sure of the part number. The only numbers I've got are off the back of the cable. They are E66085 AWM 20706 105C 60V VW-1 BANDO-CH -F-. I've found similar cable with some of those numbers, but they don't have enough pins. This cable has 30 pins and I can't find anything. Anyone know where I can find this cable or where to even begin to look for one?

A picture would actually help

This seller on eBay has quite a selection.

Here are some pics I took of the ribbon I need to replace. Thanks for the link to the ebay seller, but none of those are like the ones I need. Just can't find a replacement online. If anyone knows where I can get one, please let me know.

OK. After many, MANY hours scouring the internet, I may have found a couple cables that may work. They have the right pitch, pins, and overall length, but I'm still not sure if they'll work. The cable I have is 105C 60V VW-1, and the cables I'm looking at are 80C 60V VW-1. Would it work? I'm not entirely sure what the C stands for, but wanted to ask before I bought one, put it in, and damaged my set further. Finding the exact replacement cable is like pulling teeth, a major pain!

105 degrees C vs 80 degrees C ambient temp rating.

If the area the cable is installed in gets hotter than 80C, you want the 105C cable....

Ahh. Thanks for the info. I thought it had something to do with temp tolerance but wasn't sure. Guess the search continues. :dammit:
