Black cable's are ussaly ground cable''s, why would you be swicthing just the black's anyways? If your doing rewiring then you should have a choice anyways...and if your attemping to put it in abckwards then the red and yellow would be mixed, not to mentipn it most liikly wont fit... I'm confussed, but i know that ussaly black wires are ground.

yeah, xycron's right, black's ground and the other two are 5v and 12v, but I don't remember offhand which are which

 

[b00gi mAM]

no..i'm getting a sleeving kit which makes it so taht i have to remove all teh molexs.... icant mess up with yello and red because they're diffrent colors vut i dont see how you couldn't get the two black cables ro get miked up once it's timw to put everthing togther again sinnce tehre bot blak

 

[Ku-sama]

just make sure the cables line up

Mark one with tape?

 

[suprasteve]

again, shouldn't matter, but something like a clothes pin should hold everything in the right order

 

[b00gi mAM]

so does it matter if when i put the wire's back into the new molexs if i switch the 2 black wires around?

Heya,

switching the two blacks will not do anything. A problem could occur when you would switch the YELLOW (12V) with the RED (5V).
