Thanks Dan as I am starting to get somewhere with this. All the cable pins seem to match but Ii will do some more comparison of the two circuits to make sure. Although Pin #1 on the G-800DXA is there I seen no mention of it on the 450. I think it is voltage going upstairs to the rotation pot however.

I am pretty sure the G450 is not interchangeable with the G-800, G1000, and G2800 controllers. However, the G800, G1000, and G2800 can be interchanged. And, with suitable connector changes or use of a pigtail, the SDX and DXA versions can also be swapped.

The schematics are on BAMA, and you can compare where the units are similar/different.

I have an orphan Yaesu G-8000DXA controller and would like to know if I
can replace by G-450A control box with it without any modification?
The plugs are the same and from the schematic the control circuit is
similar.  But I would like to know first before I brick the rotor on the
tower.  Please help.
