Hardware Wii U top charge port

[luke9511]

hey every one, i have a wii u gamepad with a broken charge port and i have ordered a replacement, but was wondering if anyone has a pinout for it so i can solder in a usb cable for now to test and make sure the gamepad really works before moving on.

You can charge it from the bottom with the dock to test it.

Nyko Uboost will convert regular charging port to the contacts on the bottom for the dock, for regular charging. And can still be docked.
