2010-08-03

The Mac mini (Mid 2010) has many small and delicate cable connectors and screws. Use extra 

care and finesse to avoid damaging components. 

On the logic board are two types of connectors, each requiring special handling. Make sure you 
read these tips before disconnecting and installing the connectors.

•  Important: These 

connectors are 
extremely fragile. Use 
extreme care. Major 
repairs may be needed 
if damaged.

•  Use a black stick under 

the cable, next to 
the connector, with 
a finger over the top 
for support, or grasp 
cables with tweezers, 
and lift straight up to 
remove.

•  Keep connector 

level to board when 
disconnecting and 
reconnecting.

•  When connecting, 

verify that the grooves 
in the connector face 
down. 

•  Press evenly when 

reconnecting or 
connector can be 
tipped up and not fully 
seated.

•  Use black stick and 

gentle rocking motion 
to release tension to 
remove cable.

•  Keep connector level 

to board and press 
evenly to install cable.
