Now that the Pin 11 Pad on the PCB has been isolated, all you've got to do is solder about a 10cm 22g. piece of hookup wire to that Pin 11 Pad, and then put something like a header pin on the end.

We all like to standardise. But there doesn’t appear to be any pin number system defined for one of the most popular wire-to-board connector sets. I’ve always followed the marking used on 0.1” Molex ...

The trick is simple: on any old development board that uses 0.1″ pitch headers, simply weave some fishing line through the plated through-holes in the PCB.

My pal Wayne Yamaguchi told me about a connector system where the cable has little pogo pins and your PCB only needs pads on it for the pins to press against and a couple non-plated holes. The company ...
