Use your fingers to gently pull the ribbon cable straight out of its connector on the motherboard.

Since this cable's pull tab is too small to grab with your fingers or tweezers, grab the cable itself. Otherwise utilize pull tabs whenever possible.

Do not remove the entire socket from the motherboard, just the ribbon cable. The blue part of the cable should be visible if done correctly.

During reassembly, grab the ribbon cable by the blue tab and gently press the cable straight into the connector. Push the blue tab rather than the ribbon cable itself.
