Start by attaching the drive controller cable on the back of the drive to the logic board.
If there was a yellow piece of Kapton tape when you removed that cable, reattach it
now.
Then, following the numbers here, attach the cables you removed back onto the
components.
1.
Inverter power (routing the cable neatly around the drive, as shown)
2 & 2a.
Inverter ribbon cable (you removed it from the machine originally)
3 & 3a.
Modem ribbon cable
4.
2 wire cable from modem card (under black plastic cover)
Another picture of the inverter pink & white cord, routed nicely around the drive
mechanism.
