Can I fix touch ID by replacing the home button shield cable?
Hi,
So I've *successfully* replaced a water damaged screen on my iPhone 6, retaining the original home button, shield plate and home button cables. I now have a functional phone and home button but with no touch ID (yes I have tried a hard reset and re-seating all the connections).
I cannot see any damage, but it was difficult to pry up the original shield cable from the old screen and if any damage occurred I think it was probably there.
The touch ID was still working in the old assembly after the water damage.
I have read varying accounts of whether replacing the long home button shield cable can restore touch ID, or whether this is part of the logic board / home button set that must stay together.
Can anyone clarify? I ask in particular after seeing the iFixit disclaimer for the "iPhone 6 LCD Shield Plate with Sticker and Home Cable" part, stating "Please Note: Replacing the cable will cause the Touch ID sensor to stop working".
Thank you.

If it's basically this then there is no problem replacing it.
