    What I get to do this morning at work

    I have to solder wires onto this connector. Shown here with a dime next to it.

    Sounds like fun.

    Hope you have a nice big magnifying glass.

    Come on, Gang. Let's save stuff like this for "FACEBOOK", as it has nothing to do concerning the VX.

    Hey riff. It IS properly placed in the 'off topic: anything non-vx related'
    plus. We have definately talked about more pointless things.

    Looks like fun Clint. Sometime I'll take a pic of the harness for a remote start/keyless entry/security. And the wiring diagram

    Considering that I am a Site Supporter and that the thread is under Chit Chat, I can post what ever I want. If Moncha asks me to not post stuff then I will refrain. How about you simply dont open the threads that are labeled chit chat as they typically have nothing to do with a VX.

    Yeah, I have a remote start system at home waiting to be installed so I know how ugly it can be.

    I like making harnessing and stuff so I cant wait to get started on my Willy's. The wiring is totally trashed. The funny thing is that the schematic for it is actually a little more simple than what I do here.

    Sucks, doesn't it? The Falcon's harness is the same. I can't wait to sort that mess out.

    hey guys, its getting close to the holidays.
    Have some holiday spirit and not complain about who says what on this site.
    I am also a site supporter and like to hear about about my vx family.

    Luckily I only had to solder 6 of the 12 leads.



    This has to last for 500 boards as of right now. I think I will need some backups.

    This place would be pretty boring if we were restricted to VX conversation only and always. I personally like to know more about the people we converse with!

    Clint, what is this piece for?

    It is for a new board that we are building. It is a flex circuit and this connector is the only way to communicate to the IC on the board to validate functionality.

    I got the wires soldered to it. I didnt even have to use any magnification. I am cross eyed now though
