Re: Bad ribbon cable in KOP

We received an email from our Boeing mentor regarding the reversed connector, and followed the pdf directions to repair this. However, the plastic clips that hold the plug in place both snapped off. Used a bit of hot glue to repair, but really don't trust this for a long lasting fix. Right now we are using last year's 37-pin cable connector. Does anyone know if there is an advantage (other than weight) to the ribbon connector?
