 1551 - connection legend wrong on the PCB

Hi everybody,

I recently acquired no less than 3 1551 drives, all non-working! I've nearly got one working, but I've noticed that the black wire at the other corner to the cartridge connector is potentially the wrong way round.

The wire goes like this (from memory):

1 xoxxx 5

and the connector goes this way:

1 xxxox 5

This means that when I connect the wire the 'correct' way round, pin 2 just connects to a blank in the header - i.e. nothing at all.
Should this wire be connected the other way round to how the legend on the PCB is?

Thanks for any help!
