Remove the cable

Be very careful not to scrape off or damage any surface mounted components during this step.
Use the flat end of a spudger to pry up and disconnect the card reader cable press connector from the logic board.
Use the point of a spudger to disconnect the cable's other press connector from the reader itself.
Remove the cable.
To reconnect press connectors, carefully align and press down on one side until it clicks into place, then repeat on the other side. Don't press down in the middle. If the connector is misaligned, the pins can bend and cause permanent damage.
