Install the Control Cable Connectors and Controller Socket
Insert the 14-pin cable connector, P6. Make sure to install the 14-pin connector in the
orientation shown in Figure 23.
Figure 23-14 and 16 pin cable connector installation
Solder two corner pins, and make sure that you’ve got it right one more time
before you solder the remainder of the pins.
Check to see that the connector sits flat on the board. If it doesn’t, melt the solder
joint on one or both corner pins and adjust the connector until it does sit flat.
Insert the 16-pin cable connector, P7. Make sure that the orientation of the connector
