Thread: help with 9 pin connector

you did not mention male or female. but that doesn't mater since nothing else would work with it other than the original equipment.
what you should do is to open the case, trace the wires and attempt to identify the function of each, most likely you would have 2 for power, 2 for audio and 2 or 4 for video (2 for composite - 4 for s-video)

Welcome to the board.

Thanks, and it's female but since that doesn't matter, how do I figure out what wire is what when I'm inside the housing?

But I don't have the dvd player I still need to know what to splice into where, right?

Now what kind of video signal do I put into the video input?
Would RCA work, the prong is signal and the outside is ground, right?
(Am I right that it wouldn't be S-video cause that's 4-prong?)

I found the cable for six bucks, to cut and splice.

Side note: When I found the cable I also found replacement screens, if I ordered this screen it would be $150 so I'm still up by $124 if I can get it to work. So I figure even at 6 inches I got a decent deal.

Thanks for any help you can give...

RCA would work, the prong is Video and the outside is video ground, straight forward mapping, you got it.

Listen up, if it is going to give you hard time I'll be welling to save you the headache, I will take it for $25 + shipping

I lost the pinout for this after my hard drive toasted itself, good thing I could find my old post : ) hopefully it helps someone else out as well.

I did get 2 cables for 5 bucks (leftovers from another theft), anyway thanks for the help...

I picked up a Durabrand 7" LCD screen at a thrift store, and was having a difficult time finding the pinouts for the socket.

With your diagram, I now have the display working!
