Robert Hutchins: The 102 has a flat flex cable - it's a thin bit of plastic with copper laid down on it. It's not like the connectors that you see on the 100, where yes, ide cable is just the right wire.
Perhaps217: I did some looking on this subject. The original display FFC is 1.25mm pitch, 152mm long (measured with calipers). I thought that was Molex part #15168-0375 , but I ended up buying Molex part #15168-0379 (a 202 mm FFC) as the 152 mm version was not available quantity 1. That turned out to be a bit on the thin side, but worked fine once I backed it with a bit of kapton tape. Good luck! On Mon, Dec 14, 2020 at 7:22 PM Robert J.
