Screen wiring help please

[JohnShaw55]

Getting between the backlight and LED screen of my Mid 2011 iMac to clean dust out, had to remove the cover from the board.

Bit heavy handed I pulled the two wire cable that fits into the socket on the screen power unit.

2 wires with what look like crimped copper connectors and no idea where they go.

have noticed that on the breakdown videos can find that this connector normally appears to have 4 wires? But this was how it came out and the screen, apart from the internal dust, was working fine.

Really appreciate anyone who can - politely;-) - tell me where to stick these wires.

Thanks people.

fits here

2 wires is correct. It goes exactly where you point out (red circle).
I see, you pulled out the other end... This goes underneath the black sticker.
You remove a bit of the black sticker, and on my 21.5", there is a 4-pin connector. Mine is marked CN6.
2 pins are for this wire you are asking about, and the other 2 pins are for a temperature sensor that is stuck to the screen.
So starting with the temperature sensor = pin 1:
Pin 1: Black, temperature sensor
Pin 2: Grey, temperature sensor
Pin 3: black, the two-pin cable
Pin 4: grey, the two pin cable

2 wires is correct. It goes exactly where you point out (red circle). It only fits in one direction, and you can easily insert it without much force. If you need a lot of force, it is not right. Try again.

Thanks USB but sorry, I wasn't clear on my post obviously. MY problem is that the two wires have come free from the board and I don't know where they go?

Thanks for being so helpful sorry I'm a bit thick? See the two copper ends from the connector... where do they fit on the green board at the back of the screen?

They don't go anywhere on any green board. They go into the screen, underneath the black sticker.

Ah, I see, you removed the entire sticker, it goes here, yellow oval:
(The order of color is Black-grey-black-grey)

Sorry for the confusion.

And here is the view from 27" iMac 2011:

That's the position of the connector.

I see thank you... does it matter which goes in where? They are both black?? I believe the 27" mid 2011 iMac vertical sync cable isn't all that necessary in the mid 2011?
