The service manual lists it as PN YJF02S041Z but no hits for this. Kyocera makes connectors, so I assume that was the manufacturer of that connector. But I am not seeing anything that matches. Somebody is still making the connector because I see it all the time inside of products like speakers, etc...

A JST PH maybe would fit, but if not, you could always desolder the housing part from the board and replace with a JST connector. I forget if it is 2mm or 2.54mm spacing, though. If you have a micrometer, check the spacing between the two male pins.

Awhile back I'd taken on the task of recapping my two M100s. On one it worked great; on the other, it was "dead" afterwards.

I suspected either a cap I didn't get properly soldered, or just flux I didn't clean off the board sufficiently.

So today I opened it up again to take the motherboard out and see if I could get it working.

I needed to disconnect a two-wire connector that sits just above the "CN8" silkscreening, and connects to the LCD circuit board...

While trying to pull it out, my needlenose pliers slipped, and I accidentally cut the red wire right at where it goes into the two-wire connector. It's cut flush with the connector.


I don't even know what this kind of connector is called.

Can anyone tell me what it's called and where I might be able to order a new one?

If nothing else, can someone suggest how I can pull the bit of wire out of the connector?

If push comes to shove I can just solder the remaining wire to the pin w/o the connector. But I *really* don't want to do that.
