Is there any way to fix the ZIF Connector on an ipad 8?

The ZIF connector that connects my ipad's home button broke off. Is there anyway to repair it or possibly replace it.

The whole connectors? Or just the little locking bar?

If the entire connector was broken off the logic board, it can generally be replaced. But it will require soldering know how to do it. Pictures would help determine if any additional damage was sustained to the board when the connector broke off, since the solder pads which the connector sits on may have come off with the connector. Those can also be repaired if need be. It's just a repair which calls for a specific set of skills.

The connector itself might also be repairable, but it's hard to know without an accompanying visual.
