Try these, if you need higher res, pm me.
Still small and hard to solder, but a bit easier than directly on the nands.

Here is the true for point

GP0 > *CE
WE > NWE

GP1 > Reset
3.3V VCC > VCC and BVCC

Thank you zoids for all the helps!

Can the people in the know provide a drawing to show clearly which points go where in simple term. Therefore showing all points on the linker and motherboard so I can start to solder. My difficulty is which points go where and so on.

It's on the front page, you have to go to wiki look for your motherboard pinout

Which motherboard you have?

Thank you for your help. My mobo is Dia002. I see lots of gnd x 10 and does it matter where you solder it on the gnd linker. I see 9 points in middle of linker and what are they for. I get and understanding where the rest points go but I want to make sure before attempting. A nice drawing of the linker and all points outlining where they go on the board would be very nice. Cheers

I have soldered and done it. The only problem i am having I am still getting error 10001100. The same error I was getting with clip. I checked all points again and all in the right place and after trying so many times I gave up. Could it be there is a problem with the e3 flasher itself. I have tried the e3 flasher in Cechl and Cechk. In the Cechk the one I soldered I was able to save dump with clip but when checking errors was detected. I have desoldered and given up.

Guys, I created a diagram for SUR-001 motherboard and E3 Linker, based on the above info.
I've also tested it as my ribbon cable sh*t itself, so I can guarantee it works.
Happy days

It doesn't matter, just solder 5 point on the mobo
I done 2 ps3 so far, one is JTP-001 and DYN-001

I downgraded another one last night without any problem

Well done. Can you use the same e3 flasher to do another mobo. I thought you could use the e3 flasher only to one console I read somewhere. This is not true then? I am tempted to solder it back to the motherboard and tried again. You will see in my post above that I did not succeed after trying so many times and checking points so many times. Error 10001100 all the times with linker attached.
