If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Looking at the pinout, if 4 & 12 are swapped, maybe "Front to back" is wrong and the whole row is backwards...
Re: Icky - Progress
At the moment I think the top row of pins are tapped with the bottom. Am still working on the patch. Am going to see if I can do it on the board.exxos wrote: Thu Sep 20, 2018 9:38 pmMe to, I hate cables.

Thanks for posting the detailed diagram will help with my patching
Re: Icky - Progress
Its an easy thing to do with din sockets to get the whole thing mirrored.
When i was searching for monitor pinouts you rarely see things like "looking at plug" or "looking at socket" which when there's 12V involved it can be critical.
Still, might explain why I've popped two shifters too over the last few days?

Assuming the connector pinout is flipped so looking the right direction, pin 1 would be correct, and pin 9 opposite
Re: Icky - Progress
I have checked the middle row and 12V is correct so we were lucky there. That could of caused some damage.Forgottenmyname wrote: Thu Sep 20, 2018 9:42 pm Its an easy thing to do with din sockets to get the whole thing mirrored.

Re: Icky - Progress
I don't get how I could end up with 2 rows upside down .. I mean the top of the connector pins would have to go to the back of the connector, so pins 1-4 would have to be at the back where I put them ?!Icky wrote: Thu Sep 20, 2018 9:50 pm I have checked the middle row and 12V is correct so we were lucky there.

Re: Icky - Progress
I metered a socket and pin 1 goes to the back, so seems right to me 
Re: Icky - Progress
oh no its not....
The symbol is actually wrong, it doesn't match what I labeled on the PCB...

Re: Icky - Progress
pin 1 & 5 are swapped.. the only pins which are actually right are 6,7,8
