So...... you are saying I should take apart another controller?thewise1 wrote:I wouldn't recommend leaving it on unless it was going to stick out of the console and be an external adapter. I would still just relocate it. You just have to be really careful when removing the connector. Like get a radioshack desoldering iron It will easily take off all of the solder.
And when you do remove it, if there is any tension at all, DO NOT FORCE IT, that's what always takes off the traces. It may take a little bit of force to get it out but not a lot. Just make sure that everything is desoldered if it has a hard time coming out.

Re: Problem with memory pack wiring
OH MY GOSH! Is there a light green line, a trace, coming off of this pin? If so, lightly sand it until you see copper, ON THAT TRACE ONLY. Then solder there. If there is no trace com,ing from it, chances say it doesn't do anything. I like caps. Sorry.
