    Guide Wii Trim Resistances

    Hello modmanmac. The 1.8v points are the spots highlighted in red on the top. For your other question, you have to use the 20k setting for 3.3v and the 200 setting for everything else.

    Hey guys. I need some help with the screen. Here is the driver board from 4layertech. I plan on using VGA, but I'm not sure how I'm going to do that, so I have a couple of questions. 1. Where is the voltage input for the board? I see 12v, but the PMS Lite doesn't support that. 2. Is it...

    The 5 caps on the right are for video stuff, I don't think they are necessary, but I would just leave them on. The one in very top right needs to be removed to do the OMGWTF trim, though.

    This is my trim that I just did. It had fine resistances, but I haven't actually tested it working yet. [EDIT: It works now.] You'll also need to remove the cap in the very far top right in your picture of your motherboard. Cutting from the bottom is also a good idea, I did that.

    Hey guys! I have made a ton of progress. I soldered all of the voltage lines, U10, and the LED to my PMS Lite. Also some other stuff arrived! I got the batteries, the rvl-amp, the speakers, and the screen. I also included some more pictures, so you can let me know if anything is wrong...

    Anybody have the footprint files for the RVL-PMS-LITE?

    My PMS Lite I got less than a week ago is about 35 milimeters both sides. So maybe like 3mm longer on one side than the PMS 2.

    Okay, so I was able to solder wires to all of the voltages, and the resistances match up. I'll connect this to the PMS to see if it works, but I have one thing that might be an issue. The 1v wire was able to find a spot where the voltage (really resistance) was, but only one spot on the 1v...

    So does that mean it's safe to use? I'm worried about it getting shorted then.

    I think it's okay! I found that if I dig a little deeper with the multimeter thing, it shows a reasonable resistance. Why could it be doing that? Was the surface just blocked with flux and solder?

    How exactly do I remove it? Is it soldered on? I desoldered some of the sides, but it still doesn't come off.

    Yep, that's what I was doing. Black wire on ground and the red one on any part that says 1v on the Wii trimming guide. Edit: I tried multiple points.

    Well, that angle is kind of bad. The part that looked melted really just has some flux or something on it. I probably did melt some if it though. I must have slipped and held the soldering iron tip to it too long, and now it doesn't work. (Set at ~750) Is there a way to fix this? I have...

    Oh no, I think its messed up. I'm not getting any changes in resistance. It just stays at 1. What should I do? Edit: I'll clean it up with desilder braid but if anyone knows anything else pls say it. Also I have a spare Wii I can take the part from.

    Hey, I just started wiring my Wii, and I have a question. What does this part do? I kinda melted part of it and I'm wondering if it's still okay.

    I know think they thought that you were looking for a screen board when you said you were looking for the screen board CAD file.

    Every button needs one leg with ground. You can do this any way you want as long as a ground wire is connected. This means that you can have the ground touching the other grounds for other buttons. In an electrical circuit, all grounds can be together. You can use any ground point also, but I...

    Anybody have the footprint files for the RVL-PMS-LITE?

    I just checked, and your right, it's not there. It's probably because the PMS 2 is really similar to the PMS Lite. Also, the PMS Lite and PMS 2 are pretty new compared to the other stuff. If you are trying to make one, I would recommend just doing the PMS 2 and maybe modifying it how you want...

    1v 1.15v 1.8v 3.3v GND 91.6 29.6 36.5 5.05k 1v 105.7 112.4 5.58k 1.15v 111.4 5.12k 1.8v 3.3v Those are my resistances. Are they okay? I could sand more, but I don't mind the size now.

    Okay, my trim when good! I learned how to use a Dremel and trimmed some other stuff, but then I did the Wii. Here it is: I have quite bit of sanding to do but it looks good. I'll take the tape off after that.

    Okay everyone! I made some progress on the 3d print design. ***The bottom depends on how thin it will be.*** Also, I am preparing to trim the Wii! Here are my trim lines: I have a dremel, but I don't have the special diamond parts, so those are coming tomorrow. My next update will have...
