Mash Top Piece to Connector

Unless you're incredibly strong, you won't be able to press the top piece back onto the connector because it's hard to

puncture the wire with the pointy teeth. The easiest way to do this is to use a rubber mallet to smash the pieces

together. I recommend doing this on a hard surface (like on the floor) while holding the connector in place. Tap the top

piece in sessions as straight as you can and be careful not to mash your fingers in the process. If all goes well, the

teeth from the connector will puncture the ribbon cable and close the two pieces back together.
