How to fix this cable?

[JohnSouvlaki13]

I was modding my keyboard when I noticed one of the internal cables, broke is there any way to fix this? And if not, is there a usable alternative I can find on Amazon or aliexpress since the cable is actually detachable?

might help to know make and model of the device. Then we could google that look for it and find a seller....... Oh wait

It's the Royal Kludge RK96 RGB limited ed. Wireless keyboard.

Update: I threw out the cable because more of the wires disconnected, and I decided I couldn't fix it.

That looks like Molex 51146 to me, so:

(make sure you select 5P , 5 pins/wires... and obviosly don't buy just the connector, buy the male one with wires attached)

Does the listing you provided come with connectors on both ends?

No you'd have to manually make one male to male out of two of these (or just 1, if you use the ok part of your old cable).
Simple enough though, strip them, twist together (solder - optional, if you have the tools great if not it will work fine without soldering), electrical tape, do that 5 times and you got your cable.

There are listings for male to male, but  way too long for your use-case, 1m:

(and more expensive, but if that is ok with you: pick same direction - as that is what your original cable was)

Try searching a bit on your own, maybe you find something shorter.

Utility knife, any sharp knife, heck even nail clippers can get the job done with a bit of practice and determination.
