Hey there wiring experts, after 2 days frustration with a soldering iron, and about 4 wasted ipod dock connectors, I've finally made a decent ipod LOD for the diyMod that has 2 sockets for replacing caps. I purchased about 15 pairs between the ranges of 6.3v to 10v, ranging from 4.7uf to 330uf in 3 different brands to see what I enjoy the most.
I'm intending to make another one of much MUCH better quality than this (hopefully in a low profile connector, with a 2" cable instead of 8", with a capsule for the capacitors, or just hard wire the ones that I prefer), and I have a question:
Is there ANYWHERE else on the LOD besides pin 2 to wire up the ground? Looking at the pinouts.ru diagram, I could potentially use pin 1, but what about 11, 15, 16, 29 or 30? Having them all in that small space makes it a pain in the rear admiral to put the pins in nicely.
