Wires!

Post by wmh71 »

Hi, decided to take the case of to check it before the big switch on and some wires spear to be free! They are possibly for the led etc. 1 white, 1red, 1 grey and 3 black. They spear to fit a socket that pushes in to connect them. Is there a diagram to tell me what goes where? Many thanks

Have placed a copy of this on the Hardware Docs page on my website.

Anyone know if the same on all versions of QL or whether this varies from issue to issue or country to country?

Samsung QLs have a different connector here that makes it nearly impossible to mix up the wires.

All my British QLs have the "single-wire-plug" connector as shown in the diagram.

He he, I like it.

On the odd occasion I need to pull out the wires, I usually have to open up the other QL to see how to replace the wires... :mrgreen:

I was so tired of opening the other QL to see the wires, that I realized the diagram :mrgreen:

Anyway, I can confirm that my QL UK iss6 and my QL ITA iss5 have the very same wiring.

Someone might need also this diagram.
