It also feels like I have to press the display module down a bit hard to engage the grey retainers left and right. I can't really make out much in your photo, but from your description, I can tell you what it is. It's not there so much to separate the contacts as to connect them. It's an elastomeric connector. These were very commonly used with LCDs in the 1970s and 1980s, but have since been mostly replaced by an FPC or FFC flex cable attached to the PCB by adhesive and soldered with a hot bar. |
