I'm going to be wiring up my new 1 and 2 player CP and was wondering what is a 'best practice' when it comes to wiring color and buttons/joystick? Ie. all blue wire for Player 1 and all red for Player 2 Or is it better to use multiple colors to represent each button? |

Black. |

This really is personal preference. .. it does not matter at all. Having different colors can make it easier to trace a wire if there is a problem , but once everything is set up and working, that wouldn't be much of an issue. I personally used red wire for all of my buttons, and black for the ground wire. Sent from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk 2 |

For a large panel, there aren't enough easily discernible colors to make each connection unique, so while it can help a bit to trace them out when you have a problem, colors aren't terribly important. There's no substitute for a multi-meter with an audible continuity tester. If it's just for aesthetic purposes, do what looks good to you. :) |

I just buy cheap JAMMA harness on Ebay and cannibalize the wiring. Works great. |
