6pin wiring diagram?

[NeilFarted]

Hello, i was working on sleeving my psu cables, and was careless and didn't mark the position of the pins when i removed the connector. The cable has three connectors: one to the psu (it's modular), and two for you video cards or what not. I removed the connector from the middle one in the chain, and it doesn't have exactly the same pin positions as the end connector.

Does this make sense? I'm sorry if it's confusing, i'm trying to describe it the best i can. My question is basically does anyone have any wiring diagrams for 6pin connectors? are they standard?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

If the pin is from one of the PCI-E cables, then it does indeed have a standard layout. Here is the pinout: http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#pciexpress

that's great, the only question i have is: how do i know which is pin 1, 2, etc in the connector? does it not matter? as long as the yellow pins are in the bottom of the connector (the top being the side with the retention clip)?

Look again at the picture, look at the shape of the pins. Match the shape to the colors shown...yes, yellow across one row, black across the other row.

The side with the clip is all grounds, and the other side is all +12V wires.

yea, i just want to make sure, since the picture doesn't actually represent my situation exactly, as if you will recall, i have a cable with two pcie connections. I remember each pin for the two connections were not exactly in the same positions, and thats why i needed to figure out what goes where.
