Hello,

I have a laptop and the video ribbon cable got messed up.

I then purchased a new one and looked at the diagram online etc.

It appears that I need to connect it to the motherboard underneath the
keyboard and then to the back of the LCD.

My question is this:

Is it safe to work on the LCD with the battery out of the laptop and
power off of course... meaning could I be shocked at all?

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm new to repairs. The laptop is really old and not worth that much
so I don't care if it doesn't work and I don't want to take it to a
repair shop.

Thanks!
