Exidy Mouse Trap Ribbon Cable isn't looking too good.
Reassembling my working Mouse Trap tonight to discover that my sound wasn't working. So, decided to remove the soundboard and clean the chips and the harness and had a small "opps". Ribbon cable was very brittle and it popped right off. WIll try to re-solder the cable back on but wanted to know if anyone had any better suggestions on how to permanently repair this. Would it be best to add a plug to both the sound board and the main board?
