I'm trying to get the logic board out, but I can't seem to get the camera cable disconnected from it. Seems in there pretty tight, and I don't want to break it by pulling too hard. There's a bit of paste around it but I think that's only holding the socket in, not the cable. Anyone have a trick for this?

(early 2011 Macbook Pro 13 inch A1278)

Check with the instructions for removing the camera and cable at www.ifixit.com. Make sure you look up the instructions for your model MacBook Pro.

Never mind, I got it by gently wiggling it back and forth for a minute. Took some patience and care, but I got it!
