I also forgot to mention that the way it is broken it makes using
conductive paint unfeasible.

I looked at this thing again and it has 27 pins with 2 pins per mm.

That's no 'ribbon cable' I suspect. Do you mean a flexible pcb
construction


Yes I meant flexible pcb.


Right !

That's VERY different. I'd think seriously about whether you need to do
this.
These flexible PCBs are custom made in every case. Your only option AFAICS
is to
replace it entirely with many very fine wires. Hey, or even just patch the
problem conductors.

Nope. Readily available in our neck of the woods from Farnell, Graham.
