It shouldn't be a big deal. Personally I'd meter each wire in the cable to test/check each one so I knew which went to what. I'm sure you could find a schematic of a typical USB cable for the pin outs as they are all the same I think.

Call up CH and see if you can get a replacement USB cable, it's very easy to install and IIRC, it just plugs into the circuit board without any need for soldering.
