MightyBobo,
Thank you for all the information and taking the time to share it, I too was stuck at page 23! What you wrote reassured me that it was backwards, I was able to pull it, insert the wire and it all worked. One thing to mention is that I could not get the pin inserted all the way where it clicked in and would slip back out. What I found is the white plastic strip on the side of the connector, if you use your finger nail on one edge near pin1 you can feel it pop just a little (dont use alot of force, it does not need to be pulled off) and then your wire pin will insert with no issue. push the white plastic strip back down and it secures the pin you inserted.
