Unsolder remaining connections

Unsolder one black wire.
Pull black wire out from its routed location.
Unsolder flex connector
Be careful not to overheat the flex circuit. Work in short durations. Allow for cool downs in between if necessary.
Some repairs can be performed with the top cover still connected but the flex connection is fragile and easily damaged.
