<p>I accidentally tore my lego EV3's LCD ribbon cable while opening it.
I found <a href="https://bricks.stackexchange.com/questions/18003/lego-mindstorms-ev3-broken-screen-cable">this post</a> of someone a while back having the same issue, however as my tear is smaller I was wondering if it was possible to fix it:

Repairing a flat ribbon is tricky. And since it's not lego-specific, I suggest asking at electronics.stackexchange.com .
