I also had this problem when i retrofited snap-in the hsd cable was wrong and didnt fit so i cut it so it would fit but i had a short circuit, had to turn the cable 180° and then it worked.

Seller also confirmed to rotate the cable by 180 degrees. Now the problem is i had to trim the hud side connector as well. Can you please help to figure out which pin is voltage and which is ground on the hud?

Can you please tell if the voltage and ground wires look correct or should they be swapped.
