OK, I installed a wiikey thought correctly but it seems like it doesn't work.

Wii SN is LUH516 series.

3 legs are cut but all points for wiikey install are present as well. I tried the traditional way but no luck. Then i dremeld open the chip to expose the pins, soldered the wires and went straight to the wiikey, no luck again.

Wii stills operates 100% normally but does not see back up games and config disc does not load either. This wii is not screwed in anyway.

Is there a special wiring i need for this wii? Thanks in advance.

Which chipset does it have? If it's D2C you're screwed for now.

my only concern is your dremal job, those just dont look safe, My best advice is to get a voltage meter and test all connections from Point A to B, You most likeley want to solder the cut points on the chip to their leads below I have heard that board is multi layered if not I would suggest the chip a dud, it happens..If you got some pics please post them.

I do not have all 6 Solder Points, so what do I do now? Excuse the drawing. I had to edit it with paint because my camera is down.

You have to solder a wire from the connector on the modchip, where than point would have attached, to the corresponding leg on the Wii's drive chip. Just follow the trace back and take your time when doing it.

I have the same problem as mentioned above. I do not believe it is possible to follow the trace in this instance since there is no pad in the first place?

Perhaps it is possible to follow the trace on an older board to the chip but then the drive chip on my board is different than the older version.
