Modifying Saturn DIN Connector Wiring

Greetings, so, I'm in need of modifying the wiring for one of the pins on the saturn side of my scart connector, but, I have not got the slightest as to how this is supposed to possibly open up. Does the metal part need to be pulled straight out? Do I need to disconnect the scart lead first? Any help appreciated, thanks!

 

Do you have a side view shot? It may be a sealed plug, if you take the tv side apart hopefully all pins are wired.

 

Bought from retro gaming cable in UK and want to switch composite with C-sync?

 

I'd cut the wire (or strip the insulation) at its half and redo the connections there. It's almost never worth it to try to reuse a commercially molted-in-plastic connector.

 

Bought it awhile back, not even sure if it was from the current main supplier. Cable does not have voltage pin for RGB switch wired up, which my converter relies on.

Additionally I had to switch to composite sync, for whatever reason my derby saturn's csync pin is not putting out something suitable for my convert (csync does work on my n64 cable, not sure).

In regards to the barrel itself, I cant seem to discern a method for opening, not sure if they built from scratch or repurposed the cable originally. I'll get some better shots of the barrel when Im off work, thanks for any assistance buds.

 

Are you sure there's no wire on that pin? They often link it to two pins via a resistor in the SCART socket. Switch them over if you need it on the other pin. Or it may use the 9V pin.

Japanese consoles have different wiring. There's no 9V - it's sync.

The original SCART sockets had moulded connectors, I do believe. More often than not, they probably are. Just source 5V from elsewhere, if necessary.

 

Yeah, I checked all cables on the scart connector against the pins coming from the DIN, none are connected to the 5v pin unfortunately. My plan if I can manage to get the DIN side opened was to re-wire the wire that was run for composite video to the 5v and hook that to the rgb switch pin

You could also buy one of these, and make your own cable:
