Is it possible to reconnect a printed ribbon cable to a LCD display? The one I have goes to a floor scale and I know I could buy another one, but where's the fun in that? If anyone has advice on where to buy materials and / or how to re-attach the tape I would be very grateful. I've tried multiple times to upload a photo but I kept receiving errors.

Thanks,

resize your photo as per the requirements
I'm guessing cable will be oem supply only.

Usually these flex cables are bonded to the LCD using an expensive machine...
You could try conductive glue - of course on the conductor only and in very small amounts to prevent a short circuit between adjacent conductors. I've never done that.
