Acer Aspire 7 A715-75G Screen fix / Screen cable replacement

Recently my Acer Aspire 7 A715-75G's screen stopped working, and I deduced that it was a backlight issue because the computer would function as normal and if you shone a flashlight up to the screen you could see the liquid crystal matrix was working. I have tested the screen with an old laptop and it works fine, so I think the cable that connects the screen to the motherboard is broken. I have been trying to find a replacement cable online to fix the laptop myself but I couldn't find any after about 4 hours of searching.

Do I need to get the exact cable for the screen to work and does anyone know where I could find one and point me in the right direction.
Also the reason I would rather fix the laptop myself is that it would take an extra month to ship it to and from Acer with the pandemic and Christmas coming up.
