There may come a time when you need to reconfigure the pin-out of a
motherboard header connector. Examples could be for your USB header,
audio input header, or some other front panel connector such as the
Power Button connector.
Before performing any work, please refer to your motherboard user’s
manual or your motherboard manufacturer's website to be sure of the
pin-out needed for your connector. We strongly recommend making a
notated drawing before beginning work so that you can recover if your
work gets disturbed.
1.
Determine which wires you need to remove in order to rewire your
plug to match the USB pin-outs on your motherboard (refer to your
motherboard user’s manual). Working on one connector at a time,
use a very small flathead screwdriver or similar tool to lift up on the
black tab located beside the gold posts (squares). This will allow you
to easily slide out the pins from the USB plug.
2.
Working carefully so as not to damage the wires, connectors, or
pins, slowly remove the pin from the connector. Repeat these steps
for each wire you need to change.
3.
Working carefully so as not to damage the wires, connectors or
pins, slowly reinsert the pin into the correct slot of the connector
then snap closed the black tab that was lifted in step 1. Repeat
these steps for each wire you need to change.
