Hello, new to forum and have a question that is probably very easy to more experienced people.
I was working on an old RPTV and there is a connector mounted directly to a PC board. I can see that it has 80 pins. It's accepts a flat flexible type cable. To make it lock/unlock you have to pull up on the top part and it swings up, that lets you insert or remove the cable. Then you push it back down to lock it in place. Well bad luck would have it that the top cover part that swings up has broken. I would like to find a replacement.
It looks like a fairly common component but I have no idea what you would call this thing to even locate something that could replace it. Trying a google search but hopefully someone here can help out.
I attached a picture. You'll see three of the components I am talking about.
thanks in advance for any help.
