I have an NBA Jam Harness and an Open Ice PCB....Help!

Can someone help me out and give me some direction on where exactly the soldier side and component sides are for an Open Ice Challenge PCB?
I have an NBA Jam harness and I can't seem to tell which side is which.
I don't want to put the harness on backwards, so can someone please help me out here to see which side is which.
Thanks in advance.
 
it should be impossible to hook up backwards. but since you asked....

the component side is the side where all the electronics stick up.
the solder side is the side where you only see solder joints.

you can plug it in backwards.. if someone removed the key out of the edge connector..

take a look the pinout the 7th pin should be empty on the harness. thats where the key should be.. you board should have a notch where the key should go. Normally the key is there in the harness, but some bootleg boards don't have the notch so people will pull the key out.

If you notice both ends of jamma have ground wires. but pins 3 and 4 should have +5 (usually red wires). on the other end, those pins are usually empty.

I didn't think he was asking about JAMMA :eek: I thought he meant player 3/4 harness.
