Where can you buy a scart av connector pcb socket for XBOX in the UK? I tried de-soldering mine off my XBOX to extend it with wires, but some of the pins/connectors stayed in the mobo and now it's a wrecked av socket.:( I checked on Maplins but they are all 21-way connectors and XBOX seems to have 24. I don't really want to buy a whole XBOX mobo, just the connector, ebay only have mobo's.


Thanks in advance. :)

Either my couch or my chair.
i think that you are screwed, but why did you do that anyway?

What I will try to do is buy a faulty motherboard from ebay, then use a hacksaw to cut the scart connector socket off the mobo, I won't bother desoldering it incase I mess up again. Then solder a wire from the each of the solder points of the new connector socket's pins on the mobo, to the matching holes in my xbox mobo where I desoldered the connector. Would this work?

All the wires would go to the matching holes, it's as though the scart connector socket is plugged to the mobo, but with wires. It should work right?
