My Turbo LED display has only a ribbon cable for connecting to the "deck" (I don't know what you call it). I must assume that power to the display comes from the deck, so I have to feed it power - 5 volt I understand from searching other threads. I do have a molex 4 to 2 pin (black/red). Any ideas which pins on the deck would be for receiving power?

Edit:

Now I found this adapter, so this is more likely the power for the unit (original post edited)

Spent all night googling this and finally found a pinout for (or at least similar to) my panel. I figured I should share this resource for others:

And the page where you can find many different types of displays:

Hi,

I have the exact same turbo led display. I am trying to connect it on my 486-GVT-2 MB, but fail to do so. Most of the things I do are trial and error, but no luck so far.
I manage to give it power by using the molex 4 to 2 pin (black/red) ... but all other wires (turbo led + turbo switch 3x) I don't know where to put.
I was wondering of you got it working?
