=== Wii mote Sniffer === | |||
Breakdown the small flex cables to two small cables. Just grab them with your fingers and pull apart. | |||
Attach the cables as shown to the USB Sniffer board. Pay attention to the orientation of the cables, the traces should be on the solder side. | |||

Before soldering the other side of the sniffer. Prep the sniffer by partially removing the 3M tape backer . Get your alignment and solder the flex. Take careful note of the orientation. As the hookups for the 4 layer and Wii mini will be on the top side. | |||
(Take note that flex on the 6 layer is flipped vs the 4 layer when connecting to the motherboard if following a video tutorial with a different mainboard) | |||
