Here we go...

Finally found the switch I was looking for!
These should work as the eject button,
so you won't have to tap 1.9V directly to ground and risk shorting anything.
Connect pin 29 to the COM pin on the switch, 1.9V to NO, and ground to NC

That's also an option
fits the style of Mod Retro much better

Also, a little OT stuff; Have you ever watched Ashen's Birdhouse on youtube?
Just had to ask because of your acc name...

Where does the 1.9v come from?

Nope, never seen that ashen comedy thing. I keep hearing about it though so i'll have to check it out.

I pulled 1.9v straight from the power regulator on the GC. I'm pretty sure it doesnt have to be 1.9 though. 1.0v would prolly do it. Actually for now, 1.9 is the highest i would go. We dont want to damage anything before this is tested for a while.

Agreed.
I accedentally cut wire 27 and 8 also..any fix suggestions?
sorry for asking so many questions man

You could try to very carefully scrape the plastic back on those pins with a razor blade. Enough to make a connection.

I had to rewire a whole cable to run tests on the Wii side. I cut the whole cable straight across then carefully sanded the plastic off with some fine grit sandpaper.

Also. Proto advantage does sell a special connector that has solderable pads on it. You can find links in the GC forever forum here: http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/viewto ... &start=156

ok got them all fixed up. tnx
Did you use tape to separate the wires?Im in a mess lol

After I slit all the pins I folded every other one back and used double sided tape to hold things in place. Best to use something with a bit of substance so that the pins dont just disintigrate when you're soldering to them. Its REALLY easy to melt right through the plastic and the copper/steel leads. Tinning each lead first should make your life easier. Just dont hold your iron there too long. Hope this helps, good luck
