Problem putting ps2 back together

I took my ps2 apart and the strip of wire(?) that connects the reset/eject buttons to the power box came out....how do i get it to stay back in

Align the flat cable in the socket on the ps2 motherboard and give it a firm push, you may need to wiggle it a bit so be careful not to kink the cable, a pair of pliers makes it easier.

The cable may be damaged, Its not hard to do.
