Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 SM-T390 Fingerprint Sensor Flex Cable Replacement

What You’re Getting

This is the exact flex cable that connects the fingerprint sensor to your Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 SM-T390 or T395 motherboard. If your fingerprint reader has stopped responding or the tab isn’t recognizing it, this thin ribbon is likely the culprit. It’s made to match the specifications of your specific tablet model.

Why This Part Works

We’ve seen this part fail in rugged tablets like the Active 2 – that little cable takes a lot of flexing. This replacement is built to handle it. It’s the same connector type and pin layout, so it plugs right in where the old one was. Many independent repair technicians keep this cable in stock because it’s a common fix for a non-working biometric scanner.

Installation Notes

Before you start, give the new cable a quick visual check. When you’re working inside the tablet, use an anti-static wrist strap if you have one – those tiny circuits are sensitive. Be gentle when routing the cable; avoid sharp bends. The connector locks with a small flap, so lift it carefully to remove the old one and press the new one in firmly.
