    Default Cluster ribbon torn from pcb. How to re-attach

    Hello guys,

    W638 Vito Marelli cluster. Mileage job.
    i fail to connect using avdi on the table.

    After i opened it, i acciidentaily loosend the ribbon.

    I aplied so heat, and was able, to make it a bit sticky.
    It does not stay in place.

    I consider creating a clamp, to press down this ribbon.
    But there is no space, to leave that on. After rebuilding the dash.

    How can this be fixed?
    Glue? What kind?
    More heat?

    Any advise, please share

    Hello.
    This panel is done k-line using many free and paid solutions, both on the desktop and through diagnostics.
    Glue the cable to the printed circuit board with ordinary office tape, aligning the conductors, then spray a little spray on the contacts under the Kontakt60 tape and place a rubber seal between the printed circuit board and the case - it will work. You can't glue or solder anything
