Quoted from AUKraut:Correct: on the same socket, and depending on the pin the orientation will matter, and on others it won't. Putting the black to the outside of the socket (if it's a bayonet 44/47 type) should make it work.
Any help would be appreciated not sure if this will work with RGBW. I don’t want to fry the machine.

The RGB should light up but not the white. Test the red/black to the wall wart and the white should flash on when they touch.
One thing to keep in mind is that you really need to stabilize the 5 RGBW connectors you soldered on the left so they never can touch. When I build one of these I use 2 of the RGBW connectors like you show on the left, then all soldering is done on wires and PCB only by connecting them to the driver module.
So I try hooking it up, but I was concern after I notice my GI on the Playfield got a lot brighter Don’t know if that’s normal? Also notice that connecting only the positive alligator clip lights up the white with out connecting the negative.
If I reverse the connection on the bayonet with the alligator clips it flickers My GI on Playfield off !
Are the alligator clips supposed to be on certain connections on the bayonet ?
Sorry hate to sound like a rookie what’s a wall wart??
