Connection - 50pin ribbon cables
Fold upwards the hinge of the factory ribbon cable base to unlock the original brown
colored 50pin ribbon cable of the factory PCB.
Carefully pull out the original 50pin ribbon cable in arrow direction.
Note: The original short ribbon cable is made by very stiff material. To avoid any breakage
it mustn’t be folded back to much, either while the installation nor with the final assembly.
The connection of the daughter PCB’s 50pin ribbon cable’s has to be done, like to see in the
installation pictures of VW and Skoda, in the following order:
1. Carefully lead the monitor’s brown coloured 50pin ribbon cable into the preassembled
ribbon cable merger of the daughter PCB’s 50pin ribbon cable
“PNL-OUT”.
Make sure that the
connector pins are faced to the merger’s platinum.
2. After a check of its perfect position, close the ribbon cable merger’s lock, by folding back
the hinge, to fix the connection again.
3. Connect the daughter PCB’s 50pin ribbon cable
„CAR-IN“
to the factory mainboard’s free
ribbon cable base. Make sure that the connector pins are faced to the platinum.
4. After a check of its perfect position, close the ribbon cable base’s lock by folding
downwards the hinge, to fix the connection again.

Warning notes, concerning the installation of ribbon cables
1) The contacting ends of ribbon cables always have to be installed in a straight and
precise 180° position to the connector. Each deviation from a perfect contact position will
curse faulty contact and even danger of short circuit
2) The ribbon cable’s contacting side always has to correspond to the contacting side of
the connector, concerning the mounting position.
3) Avoid cable contusion or cable injury caused by sharp-edged metal.
