Hi,

Recently I tried to re flow my hp dv9310ca however when trying to pull out the usb 4 pin connector on the motherboard I broke the little white connector. All the 4 wires are intact but missing the white connector.(black, blue, green, white) Is there any way to fix this or purchase a new connector?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply, however its not the actual usb cable. This one is a tiny wire encased in black wire from the right of the case. They are just tiny 4 wire connectors. It has to do with the usb in some way but not the actual usb.

So there is no way to buy the white connector? I don't have a solder gun or solder. If I were to buy some just solder the 4 wires?
