Do you know where in this process the webcam is connected/disconnected? I just completed this process to replace the keyboard and swap in a new SSD while I had everything opened up. I got everything closed back up, and it's all running great, but just noticed that the computer no longer recognizes that there is a webcam. I would swear I plugged in everything that I had unplugged, but I can't figure out where the webcam connection might be.
