Step 5: Connecting the Cable
Below is a pin map of the back of the TG-16. This is as if viewed from the back, looking straight at the pins.
R stand for “right audio” or the color of signal wire that corresponds with the red plug. L stands for “left audio” or the signal cord corresponding to white. V is for “video” and corresponds to yellow. G is for ground, and since our grounds are all connected to one pin, this final plug can go on any pin marked with G.
Since the cord is somewhat delicate, be careful with it and always use the heat shrinks to pull the cords in and out. If the pins aren’t snug, squeeze them shut a little with pliers and try again. Assuming everything has been done right, the familiar end can be hooked up to a TV and the TG-16 will now function without a horrible RF cable!
Enjoy!

Excellent tutorial for this cable! Very cool D.I.Y. Project for almost anyone that is willing to get all the materials. I actually got all this stuff and was going to do pretty much the same exact thing. Especially cause I wanted to go the “No Solder” way. It just seemed like a pain and I figured that it would work without Soldering. I decided to do a search online before I started mine and BOOM, I found your sites link! I’m really excited to do this for my own TG16, I might even video it for my YouTube channel. Thanks for the tips and thorough breakdown, it is extremely helpful…..Glokas
