I can not stress enough how much time your blog saved me.

Still helpful, three years later.
yep helpful to me as well.
Thank you very much, very helpful.
Also just to mention if you are running a super old controller firmware, you don’t need to hit escape to access the console where you can run the lemClearLockdown, you can just go into the normal service menu then press Q to quit, and it drops you out to the console where lemClearLockdown works. Even works if you get the password wrong.
Thank You So Much
You saved my day. My controller works again, thank you very much.
If you’re missing the mini usb cable for later MDs (MD3420), it’s easy to make one it you’ve got a soldering iron.
I had plenty of USB-A to mini USB cables so I made a DB9 female to USB-A female adapter. You can get a USB-A female connector off any old cct board, AliExpress or USB-A extension cable.
The pinout is:
DB9 f USB-A f
2 2
3 3
5 4
So my rather convoluted connection is:
DB9M (computer) —> DB9F—-USB-A(F) —> USB-A(M)—–MiniUSB(M) —> MiniUSB(F) (MD3420)
