Help - installing a new JAMMA harness have some really basic questions

    Hi,

    I'm installing a new JAMMA harness in an old Electrocoin cabinet. It's the first time I've tried this and I have some really basic questions so apologies in advance.

    First up is a crimping question. I need to connect this to this.

    Do I just strip the cable, slide it into the centre of the terminal and crimp it with a pliers, or do I need to solder it?

    Second question - my video signal cables are connected into this connector -

    Do I need to buy special terminals to connect to this or can I just snip it and connect it using a strip connector -

    Last question. My joystick has this connector. There's no documentation with it. How can I tell which input each cable represents - is there a standard order, or is it just trial and error?

    Apologies again if this is all a bit basic. All help greatly appreciated.

    Y3You can just crimp the connector and then use some solder and then heat shrink tubing to be extra secure or just crimp. Once it's secure is the main thing so whatever you happy with, as for the video connection just lop it off if and use your strip connector, you may find you have an extra sync wire (yellow) if you do connect the white and yellow together and connect to the white on the monitor chassis cable
    The joystick connector looks like a jlf5h variant of some kind, it should be brown/black ground, orange left, yellow down, red right and green up. Give that a try and see if it works
