First off...sorry for no pics. Comp down forces me to go Mobil.

Got a new screen to install...

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1840850/

However, during the install I broke something. There's the one really wide wife harness that connects the screen to the computer. The computer end connection has a dozen of those tiny (brass looking) pins that fit into the connector on that harness. Well, I broke one of those pins off. I continued with the install and obviously it doesn't work.

What's next? Thoughts? Does that whole board have to be changed out? The wire harness didn't connect to those pins very securely either; it was so loose the harness would barely stay on.
