The first step of connecting to your NES Motherboard in the right places is to make the wire you will use to do it. \u00a0This is a lot like the wire you made for connecting the output to the RCA jacks except a bit shorter and simpler. \u00a0Start with a 10″ long piece of the 4 conductor wire, a 4-pin connector shell, and 4 connector pins.<\/p>\n

As you can see in the image above, I separated the wires a short distance for the side that I will use for the connector and a long distance for the side that connects to the motherboard. \u00a0To make using this wire a little easier I like to pre-cut each wire so it lines up better with the part of the NES motherboard that it needs to connect to. \u00a0Leave the Black wire the full length. \u00a0Shorten both the Green and the White wires each by about 1″. \u00a0Then shorten the Red wire by about 2″.<\/p>\n

The process of building the connector is the same as it was for the output wire, but the other way around. \u00a0This is just because the color order of the input wires is the opposite of the color order of the output wires. \u00a0Line up the side of the wire that you separated only a short distance with the connector. \u00a0Place it so the wires, from top to bottom, are in the order of Green, Red, Black, then White as shown below.<\/p>\n

\"motherboard_input02\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Solder and crimp on your connector pins and\u00a0build the connector after flipping the whole 4 conductor wire over the same way you did for the output connector.<\/p>\n
