Need help with video wires!!! Please help!!!

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

Hello my name is Brenton. I recently have started a project to make my ps2 portable. I got a car backup screen for the screen for the portable. I have been trying to solder the screen to the board. Only one problem, I don't know what I'm doing. I have the video cable cut and I have soldered it many times to the correct spot i have found  off a diagram. I just recently figured out I need ground. I have no idea which wire the video ground is. I doesn't even seem to exist. There are 2 video inputs, a white and a yellow. The only other wires are red and black, which are positive and negative for power. So my question is, which wire is ground? How do i find it? And will just soldering the yellow wire and the ground give video input? Thanks ahead of time. I appreciate your answer.

    Did it work with normal cables before you hacked the wires? If you didn't test this, then you won't be sure it worked in the first place. If it did work with normal RCA cables connected between the screen…

    Can you give us a bit more information? What kind of car backup screen, what diagram are you following, etc...
