Fanatec Handbrake pinout

What is the pinout for the Fanatec handbrake? Getting different answer every time I find a solution :(

1 black tip
2 green tip
3 nc
4 nc
5 white base
6 red ring

RJ12 pin - 3.5mm plug ( tip - middle - base )
1 - +ve (middle)
2 - Shorted to pin 1
3 - Nc
4 - Nc
5 - Signal (tip)
6 - GND (base)

Signal | 3.5MM Jack = Sleeve | RJ12 = Pin 2
+5V | 3.5MM Jack = Ring | RJ12 = Pin 1
Ground | 3.5MM Jack = Tip | RJ12 = Pin 5 + 6
 
Pin 1 -ground
Pin 5 -signal
Pin 6 -vref


Make sure if you buy new cables to connect that they aren't inverted from one end to the other, a common thing with RJ12 6p6c


You can also take a volt meter and test the rj12 socket on the wheelbase while it's plugged in to make sure

Just spend couple of hours trying to fix handbrake which I buy broken. Here is wiring which finally worked for me. (This is picture taken by Podger from GTPlanet, not mine)

Hope it will help someone.
PS. I didn't broke anything by connecting pins in the wrong order while trying other solutions.
