More work on the X68000 PSU. Managed to re-pin and rewire the power harness. First time ever I'm doing anything like this. The continuity seems to be OK everywhere, and there are no obvious shorts. It matches the wiring diagrams I find online.

Make your bets if it will work, or I'll end up with a very expensive Japanese paperweight. 😅 Soon we'll know. Fingers crossed. 🤞 cc: @spook

Before-After picture of the repined power connector.
The original X68000 power harness wired into the PicoPSU board's screw terminals.
And the whole contraption hooked up to the X68000. Will use an external power brick to fire up the PicoPSU first.
