How/where to connect power to #946 (4.3" TFT Display)

Postby pra » Wed Nov 21, 2012 4:42 pm

The unit comes with the audio/video plugs attached and a power jack and cable with bare wires at end to obviously attach to the display. For the life of me, can't see anywhere to attach these wires . Help!

you can plug a 12V power supply such as this one right in, remove the extra cable with wire ends

Ahh, I thought the red and white connectors were the audio jacks, the yellow being the video. Turns out the white is audio and red is power!
