For the most part my ST has worked, but I have some hang ups with the magnet, so I figured I would implement the fix.
Cracked a beer(Dogfish 90min) and then went to work. Knew I had seen the picture below, so I brought it up as a reference.
Unplugged the cables, twisted wires, plugged back in. Figured I'd double check picture to make sure everything looked kosher.
It was at this moment the panic set in, and I started questioning whether the Dogfish had gotten the best of me.

Regained my sense of composure, and figured out this is a difference between the boards on Pro and the Prem/LE. The sections in question are highlighted.

The first picture is from Kneissl's Pro:

Here is the picture from my Prem of the same area:

On the Prem, nothing is connected to Board 5 at J3/J4
Here is the picture from the manual that I looked up to confirm my sanity:

Figured I would put this out to save any future twisters some confusion.
