I found this thread about one possible way to repair the battery connector if you rip it off the board. Not an easy repair but some great information on where the connectors pins go to The Brown connector broken. See @Wolfson reply
Be really careful when you lift the brown retaining clip for the battery cable as you can quite easily lift the whole connector off the logic board rendering it useless. Ask me how I know :) I had successfully removed the cable and refitted it twice before but I rushed this time and ruined it. Luckily I got it for nothing so no big loss but very annoyed with myself.
Ensure that the hard drive plastic strips are sitting down all the way into the lower case while you clip the two halves back together. Start at the end that has the hold switch and work your way evenly along both sides until you reach the other end.
One tip is to test that the unit powers up before clipping the two halves back together as you do not want to have to go through the whole opening procedure again if you didn’t manage to get the cable back into the socket correctly. Charge the battery up fully before using the IPod for any extended period of time
Thanks for the guide Miroslav Djuric (and 7 other contributors) it made this battery replacement quite easy. Like others have said, opening the case is the hardesest part but with a bit of perseverance and a valium or two it osn’t too bad. :)
I released the retaining clip by gently pulling it up out of the back half of the case (easy does it just ease one side up at a time in small increments) and gently pulling the the battery cable out of its socket with some tweezers. Then I gently lay both halves side by side, gently prised the battery up to release it from the lower case (some adhesive holds it in but it releases quite easily) Fitting the new battery just necessitated putting a right angle bend in the cable at the end at the same distance as the old cable has it.
Thank you to everyone who commented about this step. I did not have any trouble doing this but I could have. Also for all the excellent clarification especially the tips on reinserting the ribbon cable which I have yet to do after I hopefully fix the logic board
