Alright now we need to open up our din 5 keyboard. So again flip it over and get busy. Once you have the keyboard internals exposed locate the end of the wire where it meets the pcb. As I said in the previous step if its plugged in simply remove it. If its soldered in then clip the wires but leave enough of the wire on so that you can identify the color and position of the wire for later use. My keyboard had a plug so all I had to do was to unplug it.

Set your Din 5 cable aside and get ready for the next step.
