How to make a USB by using dead battery

 by Indiana67

Step 8: Connect and test the mini socket

Trim the mini socket’s wires so that they reach the tags that the original USB plug was connected to.

Solder them into place, but don’t overheat them.

CAUTION : Make sure you’ve wired the socket correctly. It’s possible to permanently damage your computer if you don’t.

Plug the USB drive into the computer to check that it’s working.

If it is, then carry on making; otherwise go back and check your wiring.

The circuit must work before you can continue.
