24 -Measure out the ground and power signals by comparing with other chips on board. E.g. we find [SAA1064T] datasheet, locate the GND (Vee) and 5V (Vcc) and measure connectivity (0 ohm resistance) between chip pins and cable pins. This gives us pins GND 2 & 8 and PWR 16 & 22.

32 -Reading the datasheet for SAA1064T chip we find that: "//This results in the corresponding valid addresses HEX 70, 72, 74 and 76 for writing and 71, 73, 75 and 77 for reading. All other addresses cannot be acknowledged by the circuit".// Giving us a clue what we are looking for, i2c addresses 0x70, 0x72 or 0x74.

93 -== i2c multiplexing with TCA9548 ==
94 -
95 -We have two sets of chips, one for left and one for right where we have two different i2c chips on each side for controlling lights. Since the chips controlling their respective parts have the same address for each side, we can't distinguish them from each other. To handle this we use a i2c multiplexer to selectively communicate with one half at a time, switching TCA9548 between two different output ports.
