So…….. Which one of those flexes is the camera flex? It seems you skipped over a lot of the connectors in your guide.

I would like to know this as well same issue with Camera not detected as other comments.

I’m also interested in this. After a LCD swap, de iSight camera / webcam isn’t working.

Y’all need to give bonus points for putting it all back together again. Those T3 screws in steps 5 and 7 are awful hard to get back into place while holding the brackets in place. Not to mention the replacement display I purchased (from a third party) didn’t have the other two brackets in place, so I had to move those over from the original display as well.

The high res images in this guide are very helpful, and the guide is very well written and straightforward. Thanks.

I have replaced the complete screen on my macbook air and followed these repair instructions to the letter, but for some reason the camera is not detected, I have double checked the connectors but still no camera detected when opening any app s like facetime, photo booth etc.
