That yellow wire

I recommend not cutting the yellow wire, this way you can connect your old DVD-Rom up to it. I’m not sure why the German diagram of the yellow wire was backwards, but using your meter you can determine the correct order of the wires, I reversed it in my diagram as if you are staring directly into the holes, not the behind view.

What I did is cut 4 wires (like 16 gauge wire? See the green one?) and soldered the tip of it to make it stuff, then shove it into each little hole, and some tape to hold it all together, you can cut/slice/build a connector, be creative!

Connecting the X and Y

I used 30 gauge wrapping wire for all connections except the power to the chip. Same wire you should have used while chipping your XBOX.

Run 2 wires from the X Signal, 1 to connect to the A Signal of the yellow wire, and 1 to connect to pin 12 of our NAND gate.

The Y signal comes out of pin 11 of our chip, connect it to pin 1 and run it into the B Signal of the yellow wire.

The other pins

You should be able to figure these out from the diagram schematic.

Almost forgot about our W. Ok so we got the W signal wire hooked up near the chip, we need to connect the C Signal from the Yellow wire to the W. In the middle of the connection we want to take our 4.7k resistor and connect it to the switch in the front.

You can tell the resistor by its color code… Yellow, violet, Red (4th code is tolerance… Gold (5%) is good)

Lets test it anyway, 4.63k, close enough right (1.5%, its close)

That’s the back of the switch… I also reversed my diagram of it from the German version, its as if your staring using this picture, the one on the right. Though it probably doesn’t matter which side you wire it up to.
