100% guarantee it’s the red retainer that prevented it. I didn’t take that out.You'll get there. On the CCM 8-pin connector, make sure you look carefully at the PIN numbers. They're only numbered on the back cover. Look at the annotated photo attached. You also have to disassemble the connector like the other photo. The red part is like the white part on the IPMA connector that you had to remove in order to insert the pins... it's a retainer and the pins won't snap in unless you first remove it. Did you get a crimper for the pins? They're awfully small and if you have the slightest bulk in the area where you attached the wire, it won't seat properly. And you're not bothering us. We're here to share what we know. Good luck.
