Nino because these wires are a loop thats pushed into the IDC (thats how it looks to me), will I need to cut them in half, and twist to make a single wire to change to molex connector? Can I use the pins that are allready in the small pcb with the molex? (not wanting to change the pins at this stage, cant solder well lol). I have crimping tool, and know how to replace the older style connector spade thingies.
Thanks

Greg - I know exactly what you mean, and I wish I had pictures of my method. I can be done. But you need to solder to do a good job.

You cannot use the existing pins in the Molex housing.

I think you may have to purchase a replacement IDC connector and pins. You will need the insertion tool. This is probably your best option.

Sponsors should stock what you need. Keep us updated.
