Does anyone know the specification details and a source for the keyboard connector on a Macbook 13" Late 2009 logic board? It is the connector you slide the keyboard ribbon cable into. I have attached a photo.
Pin 4 has burnt out, but the logic board works on an external keyboard, so it would nice to have it fully functional. All my search results on this subject say replace the logic board, but the connector looks like a surface mount device and I have the tools to de-solder and replace it. It is a 30 pin device with a 0.5 mm pin pitch, with a clamp. Does anyone know what the name of this connector is and where it can be purchased?
