Geoff,

Look at the mating female connector. If there is a plug in that connector that matches the third from right pin, you will have to remove the pin. Those are "keying" pins to assure that you do not misplug the connectors by being one pin off. If there is no keying plug in the female connector, then you do not have to remove that pin - but be careful to insert the pins correctly.

Am installing a KXV3B into my K3 #266. The latest manual (Rev C1) says it’s 
normal for one of the pins that plug into J66 to be missing (third from right 
looking from front panel). In my case there is no missing pin so I’m wondering 
if that, too, is normal? Anyone come across this? It would be easy to remove 
but I’d rather not if it’s alright to leave it.
