Turboduo CD to MB connector search

[grayswan]

Hi there,

 

Please let me know if this is not the proper place for this topic. I have a turboduo on my bench that someone attempted to repair at some point and mangled the white eight pin to seven pin CD to motherboard ribbon cable. They made an attempt at repairing it which was faulty. I've corrected it as best I can, and it rings out clean with a multimeter now but whoever tried to fix it before half melted the damn thing. I know the problem is still this cable because when I replace it with a known good one from another turboduo it will boot right into a game. My question is, does anyone know the name of these type of connectors? I'd like to order some of these connectors so that I can make replacement cables but I can't for the life of me determine how to identify them for a search.

 

Thank you,

Dylan

I believe I've tracked it down, I'll share it here in case anyone needs it. Looks like it's JST 2.0mm PH 7-Pin and 8-pin respectively.
