MITSUBISHI MSZ-HJxxxx are controllable via the CN105 connector

Hi All,
MITSUBISHI MSZ-HJ xxxx air conditioners which are normally not controllable because not having a CN105 connector, are finally.
After analyzing the technical documentation the control card has a CN105 which is not mounted and on the other side 2 0603 resistors are not mounted either. So I bought connectors and now I control my MSZ HJ50VA without any problem thanks to a WEMOS mini D1 with the Swicago firmware.
The resistors; I started cautiously with 470ohms, it did not work I replaced them with 100ohms and now it works perfectly. these resistors are in series in the Rx and Tx connections, I am almost sure that if we put a piece of wire so 0ohms it will work just as well.
The connector is an angled version mounted flat on the IC it is a JST 2mm 5 pins reference S05B-PASK-2 Bought on Aliexpress:

it's not red but it still works
