Normally on a ribbon cable there is a locking strip, which you need to remove before reinserting the ribbon cable and then fit the locking strip.

Hi Steve there is no clip just a flat ribbon cable there is nothing to grip to push into slot....:awwww:

There won't be anything on the cable itself. Have a careful look at the slot it fits into. There should be something which lifts up or swings sideways. The cable should require minimal force to insert. I usually grip them with a pair of plastic tweezers.
