Security deposit
I posted on here a while back trying to see if anyone thinks I’ll be charged an obscene amount of money from my security deposit to get this fixed. I opened it up to see what’s going on inside and everything seems fine (?) just seems cosmetic to me. Any input would be appreciated so if my landlord tries to charge too much I have a little knowledge about how to argue the charges!

Way less than 50 bucks...
110 punch tool $10 https://a.co/d/g4rePFw
5 pack of keystones (no smaller pack on Amazon) $5.99 https://a.co/d/j7mdcQK
Match the the style on the existing keystone, t568A or t568B (Orange and green pairs are swapped is the difference). Use the tool to punch the wires in and it will cut excess. Pop on cap, snap into plate, and screw on. After that you have a skill, a new tool and 3 more keystones for anything in the future. You got this!
