Touchscreen cable needed

USB screen cable

Has anyone got one of these spare? It's a 3M USB cable (part number 7312256). I ordered one from Esupplyline 2 weeks ago on Sunday and I have received or heard nothing from them. So I will be contacting PayPal on Monday for a refund. If anyone has one spare, please PM me, beer tokens will be made available.

Many thanks,

Dave

I was going to recommend another seller but they share exactly the same business address as Esupplyline so doubt they would be any better!

Few options in case you can't get a cheap replacement

1) Do you have the original cable? If so you can test the continuity with a multimeter and see what is up with it. Might be a nice easy fix.

2) You could make your own? I might be wrong but I think it's a standard 2mm connector, so something like this, but terminated with USB-A at one end. You could either get bare ended USB-A cables and terminate with these connectors if you have the tools, or vice-versa I guess.

Thanks @slotsmagicWas it E-Screen? 4 doors up? I've been in contact with them, and they may be an answer to my problem, but worried they are gonna be the same. The link is great as I couldn't find the 2mm connector and at one point I found a 5 wire to usb cable, but have lost it now. Putting the 2 together should get me my cable! No original cable, I just bought a door with a screen in it (which I tested and it works), and it still had the touchscreen control thingy still in it.

It was E-screen, they were £11 on the website. It might not be exactly the same address, I just glanced at it, thought 'surely not!' and didn't investigate past then!

You could always do what I did with the graphics cards I made - make say 5 cables, use 1, and sell a couple of others to cover your costs of materials e.t.c. while also helping others out who might need one. I've not broken or damaged one yet but they are fiddly little cables, especially at the end that connects to the touchscreen interface :)

[edit] Just to be sure - I believe the connectors I linked to are the correct ones, but I haven't ever tried them and would hate to be wrong :)


You could probably just get USB cables, cut one of the plugs off and crimp a 5 pin 2mm pitch connector on the end? Again it's the sort of thing I tinker with but haven't done it on these. I have repaired / replaced a few T7 coin mech cables with my fabulous (ghetto) crimping skills though :)
