This may require adding a little bit of extra wire at the connector end on your own in addition to the wires that already exist inside a standard PS2 cable. ![]() Similarly, pin 4 on the PS2 end connects to both pin 4 and 7 on the serial connector. I expect that a 4-wire PS2 cable would be sufficient, as the wire coming from pin 5 on the serial connector simply connects to both pin 3 and 5 on the PS2 end. I have not actually used this schematic as a recipe for a DIY password reset cable myself since I have access to a few of them, but I suspect it will take much more than simply splicing the middle of the cable and swapping which wires are connected to which.
