Hi,
I have installed the shaker components. I need to connect the PCB to the backbox and to the 12v (red wire with one pin connector on the pic).
A video of the installation on a Metallica shows a spare female connector with 12v at the front left, which you plug the shaker wire into.
I do not find one on the CSI. How can I get this 12v ?
Any idea is welcome
Thanks

What is missing in this story is that also a small board is envolved and via that board the ground is supplied
I also do wonder if CSI software is programmed for a shaker.
Yes it is. According to the vendor, the option in the menu and the manual.

A 2 wires cable goes from the shaker to the board that’s right. But from the PCB, I see no connection to the ground. The outgoing wires are: a red one for the 12v, a brown one to the driver for commanding the start and stop. that must certainly be the ground, now I think about it. It is grounded like a transistor.
Quoted from wayout440:Interesting. I've never seen one like that. The only shakers I have seen are two wire. Some are aftermarket with kits to adapt them to various games. Can you provide more detail? I assume if it has one wire it expects the chassis to be grounded somewhere, but these are wood boxes.
I think the grounding is managed by the driver in the backbox, like a transistor. I see no other way of doing it.
