Hi,

I need your help to identify a component of my Apple Watch Series 4.

When I was taking apart my watch to repair the screen I accidentally break this part. Anybody knows what it is? Will work my watch without it?

Thanks in advance,

No one knows what this part is or what is its function?

No one on this forum knows what that part is specifically. If I had to make a wild guess at best, that looks similar to what you would see connect to a ‘battery lead‘ from your vehicle, but that’s where the digitizer cable connects above that point to the display ribbon. Even if that is correct, you wouldn’t be able to find a replacement part, you would need an entire new unit.
