    • Peel back and remove the piece of tape covering the SIM board cable ZIF connector.

    • Flip up the retaining flap on the SIM board cable ZIF connector.

    • Using the tip of a spudger, pull the SIM board cable straight out of its socket on the logic board.

    I found it easier to remove the 7 screws first in step 42 then gently pull the logic board towards you freeing the SIM board cable.

    This cable is really fragile, I found it easier to flip the retaining flap then remove all 7 screws in step 42 then gently pull the logic board toward you freeing the SIM board cable.

    For me, it was impossible to accomplish this step without first removing the 7 screws from the Logic Board and disconnecting the Logic Board connectors (Wi-Fi, Speaker, Dock/Lightning) at the bottom. Then, I could slide the Logic Board downward just enough to pull free the SIM cable. When reassembling, I attached the 3 antenna connectors first, then the SIM cable, before installing the 7 screws and Logic Board connectors (Wi-Fi, Speaker, Dock/Lightning) at the bottom. Went a bit easier.
