The connector can be plugged in two different ways: RED wires to the left or to the right. Which is correct?
As pictured, I believe it is red wires to the left when orienting the laptop with the battery slot closest to you. However, this was for a technical communications project I and others wrote some time ago for college, and as such I no longer have access to the laptop so I cannot confirm for sure. Let me know if you have any other questions, I’d be happy to help out if I can.
