Careful, the landlords might hear you and start charging death rent.
I didn't do the soldering on it, though I would have liked to as an escape from my former boss (that's another story), but I did watch the technicians doing it and from what I remember:
First, double check your wiring diagram at both ends. Had a right fun time explaining to my boss the reason for the days of delay was whomever did the connector on the motor/gen socket had wired it up backwards because they hadn't flipped the wiring diagram. And disassembling that was a bitch.
Triple check the orientation you're working from and it's always better to borrow a second pair of eyes than redoing it.
Make a spreadsheet with the connections and print it out large on A3 paper (or US equivalent size).
Read the connector documentation a few times and have a go at disassembly then reassembly without the pins.
Cut your wires to the required length and bundle them together into a harness using kapton or electrical tape.
Make sure any glands that need to go over the end of the connector are slid over your wiring bundle
Work from the centre out, it makes pin insertion much easier.
Double check before inserting a pin until it clicks, they're more difficult to remove than insert.
Check both ends using continuity on your multimeter after each insertion (if that's possible) and mark off the connection on your A3 sheet using a highlighter.
Run a continuity check after you've inserted the last pin.
Finally, slide the gland fittings and thread into place.
Please verify this advice yourself as it's been more than 4 years since I've worked with these connectors and you should never blindly trust strangers on the internet, let alone those giving advice.
Happy wiring 😊
So hypothetically, if an Israeli gets depression, is experiencing a lot of negative self-worth, and is having suicidal thoughts, and keeps telling themselves they "don't want exist anymore, I don't deserve to live, etc."...
Does that make them antisemitic?
Turns out journalists don't need to give voice to the powerless and challenge the powerful when their owned by the powerful and, like with everyone else, have to rent everything from the powerful.
Oh my god, they were roommates.
Oooh, electronics engineer chiming in here, those connectors are pretty cool and expensive. I've worked with them at a previous aerospace company. They're great for wiring up because they're keyed for only one way and the key is off-centre so you'd have to be an idiot to fuck up when following the wiring diagram. The trick is to not let an idiot draw the wiring diagram.

Just four more years and then his papers get released. I can't wait for the juicy details!
Thomas realised that the only way for the Island of Sodor to guarantee it's security was to demonstrate the effectiveness of its nuclear weapons program.
He was about to be a very naughty engine.
Does anyone else want a not-serious oceans 11 meets League of Extraordinary Gentlemen style film about EA-NĀṢIR pulling off some sort of copper heist with 10 other famous people from ancient history? Is it just me?
My circuit design lecturer: "If you dig down deep enough into the theory, every component from resistors to microprocessors are analogue and complex."
Me: (internal screaming intensifies)
My plug: "Here, smoke this doob."
Me: (inhales deeply) It all makes sense now.
Please do it Putin. WE want the excuse, NATO wants the excuse, Poland's ~~chomping~~ champing at the bit for the excuse and we really want to see how long it takes them to rush Moscow.
Edit: damn it Lemmy, I'm an engineer not a dictionary.
There's literally the handle of an electric kettle on the left side.
No this is something far worse: someone in the UK whom has strayed from the light and committed heresy!
May the Tea Gods have mercy upon them, for I shall have none!
