Regulator Cables
I had to edit this one because it was completely wrong. I couldn’t find the manual for the regulators and the website had a bad link at the moment. It is fixed now so I reread the manual and see what went I hadn’t noticed before.
I found 12″ 6-pin connectors at Walmart and compared the wiring and they were in the right order. Problem was when I looked at them through the box the tangs were facing different directions. According to Rudman, “TDBR” means tang down, blue right. With the wires I purchased that is true for one but opposite for another. That makes sense from the perspective of connection a phone to a socket, but not connecting in serial for communication. I’ll cut off the plastic terminals on the wires I have and recrimp them with new 6-pin terminals. More expensive than buying a spool of cable and terminals and doing it that way to begin with, but now I know store bought cables probably won’t work.
