iPad A1489 Digitizer Replacement

I use an iPad mini 2, I can not find any replacer for my digitizer anywhere. Those available are those with one pin connectors, the screen that I am trying to replace has two separate sets of pin connectors.

What is the second pin connector for? And can I go ahead and fix the digitizer with more common one pin connector. Will it work?

Hey, these are pictures of the inside. Apparently the longer pin connects to the port that is situated higher up.

What is the purpose? And can I use the digitizer with only one pin?

I googled the model number and realized that this is an iPad mini 3 reworked into an iPad mini 2 back case.

The 2 digitizer cables stemming from the front case are the home button and digitizer cables bound together by adhesives.

The fact that there were stuck together is what was confusing.

Thanks guys, I’ll just go ahead and separate the two cables.

LCD and digitizer are separate on iPad mini 2 (meaning you can salvage either one given it is unbroken and functional), that long connector sits above short one is to connect LCD.

Make sure LCD is still working, then all you need is the digitizer. Follow the digitizer replacement guide thoroughly on iFixit, and also go over the exhaustive guidelines written by @refectio in his answer to this question: After doing my repairs (battery and screen) I have problems

@refectio born in the year of the horse and my friends have been calling me gorilla since junior high, according to them I used to be really hairy -_-!
