Sounds like the cable isn't getting picked up at all..

 

PS, there's an easy way to tell if the cable is being seen, put some cas and ATX files on the cart. If the cable is not being seen it won't show those file types on the cart..(if memory serves me right, tmp as always will correct me if I'm wrong)

Is there still a way to order such a SIO to AVG cart cable?

Just not to the UK...

I pointed Mario to tmp's shop, as he seems to be located in Germany.

[Mclaneinc]

I'm not sure if Mario was try to point out to the other guy he might want to get a new cable from somewhere, obviously if its for Mario then no issue..

 

Just us lot in poor old blighty

 

I'd have helped but I passed on all my spare parts to people on the forum..

Don't worry. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Just watch this space.

Nice one...And just down the road from me...ish...10 mins on the A40..Plus I used to live in Marlow so know Slough well..

I am closer that you even think. I work in Greenford

[Mclaneinc]

Lol...Its a small world as they say...

 

Welcome neighbour

[MARIO130XE]

Thanks for pointing me to the shop.👍

I need the cable for my own cart. But unfortunately, I just have checked my cart and realized, there's no connector on my pcb for such a SIO cable.😪

Could someone help or instruct me to solder the cable directly to the pins on the pcb?  I need to know, which colour I have to solder to the pins from 1 to 6 at the pcb from top to bottom. Or someone could point me to the right connector so I could buy it and try to solder it on my pcb.

Mario, I went through my spares drawer and just in the corner were 2 of the connectors you need, you are more than welcome to one , If you PM your address I'll get it in the post..

 

Best to have the connector as its neat and unplugable..

 

If anyone needs the last one then please pm me..

That's really really awsome of you. Billion thanks.

But tmp just told me via pm, he will send a connector, together with the cable.

 

Big, big thanks anyway, for all your help, Mclaneinc, lewiS and tmp. 🥰

 

Greetings Mario

[Mclaneinc]

My pleasure Mario, and you will get it quicker

 

That leaves the offer open to any one who needs one, ends up I have 3...Just the connector, also found one cable for the connector but its only 15cm I'm afraid..And free of charge as usual..No SIO plugs..

[MARIO130XE]

Yippeee  The cable and the plug arrived yesterday.

 

 

A little soldering and milling and voila ...

 

 

Thank you so much, tmp. It's working like a charm.  

 

 

[Mclaneinc]

Great news...tmp, such a nice guy..

 

Paul..
