    Default I could break my NES when doing this.

    I recently took out my 72 pin connector, fixed it, and am TRYING to put it back in. the damn thing wont fit. should i try jamming it in there, or what?

    Try loosening the screws holding down the RF out unit. Should give you the wiggle room you need. Be gentle but firn with that pin. You are the Boss!

    The same force that removed it can replace it. I've done it at least 16 times, and yes it can put up a fight.

    Good Luck.

    I have instructions from my website. You should not have to force it on. I have installed about 40 connectors myself. If you need help , just let me know

    OK Kaine I will try and get that done tonight. My ISP was giving me trouble uploading the pics last night. So I made them smaller thinking I was running out of webspace.

    Thanks for your patience

    Thanks for posting this, Dustin! I was looking for something like this for a long time! Hey, DP! Perhaps you can archive this link! This seems to be a question that seems to be asked pretty often around here!

    It's really no problem! I bookmarked your page for when i get my connector in the mail (Ordered it from MCM Electronics) and I figured having bigger pics clicked from the thumbnails would make things easier for your readers.

    Dustin, when you get it done, lemme know please?
