I need help repairing my ego style vv battery

[jlsanders83]

Yesterday I was trying to adjust the center floating pin on my apollo ego battery and must have pulled it up too much and ripped the wire off of it. Then when I took apart the battery I accidentally pulled the rest of the wires out of their place. Would anyone know how they are supposed to go back on? I can solder them I just don't know where to solder.

Sorry about the pic it was supposed to be 3 pics and just the one of the center pin attached.

This is the chip

These are the wires coming from the battery. So basically I don't where to solder the white, black, green, or red wires coming from the battery to the chip. On the chip are terminals that say from left to right on the bottom: led, key, gnd, bat+. I also don't know which wire should be soldered to the center pin. Any help would be appreciated.

This is related to the twist, but there are a few videos around regarding soldering the vv ego.

If you can't find them, post and I'll try to see what I can find. I know I've watched a few videos regarding this.

SteelJan did a twist button repair, but I think she talks about soldering. Check out her other videos.

It if is the center where you screw the atty in, it's positive. Center posts in attys are positive where as the screw area is negative. It looks like the green wire is still attached to the board, so that takes one out of the guessing game.

Thanks everybody. I took it to my brother who builds circuit boards for a living, and I'm pretty sure we got the right wires in the right place. The battery will work until it makes contact with a cart/clearo then the led on the fire button shuts off and nothing happens. Oh well I ordered a vamo last night so I'll just wait for it t come in.

Well, since it's a spare (I don't believe in trash) i'd salvage it for a mod. Make a box mod with the sinning part at the end and the board. Pretty much will only cost you batteries, a box, and switch. No need to waste a perfectly good board.
