The little ribbon cable might be the one for the speakers and 3D control. The 3DS won't boot if it doesn't find the speakers.
Why the speakers? That seems like not a big thing to miss, unless it is important circuit wise or something like that...
Yeah, the problem is probably a microtear within the sound ribbon. I think that's the main thing that sends data to the top screen or something, idk really. Also, 3D is a very important part of a 3DS. But once you take that ribbon out, there's not much use trying to get any sound ribbon back in. im talking in the sense that this ribbon is orange and not black because if it is black i'm a stupid

You could buy a broken one maybe if you're lucky for cheap, doubt you can buy just that part. On another note why would you put it under your pillow?
They do exist online such as these shown here. I hope these posts cleared everything up? I just felt i needed to share my expirience here.

Ribbon cables are very fragile; just one pull too hard on it can damage it.

" did your 3DS also fall out of the window and get run over by a lawnmower? I'm having a hard time believing that it broke from falling off a bed "
The left hinge was broken so it can move freely on that side.

"toiuchscreen" I'm pretty sure something else must not have been properly connected too... Anyway, I killed another ribbon cable too! Yay! It's totally screwed!

That sucks. Hopefully you find out someway to fix your 3ds.

Hahaha! No. At this point I might as well throw it at a wall and burn it. I'll just scrape up some money and get a New 3DS at some point.
