    I don't have one of those models to check it out to see how it's connected but lets just hope for now the other end of those two wires isn't plugged in as that is your AC line.

    You could pull off that molex connector and see if it has all three pins or just the two you need. That could give you your first clue.

    "You could pull off that molex connector and see if it has all three pins or just the two you need. That could give you your first clue."



    Yes ive done that and there are 3 pins..
    Am i right in thinking that the two ac wires can actualy go either way round as long as there in the correct 2 pin slots on the molex?

    Cheers for any help !

    Yes, as the current alternates it makes no difference which wire is connected to which of the two correct pins.

    Great!

    Ok ,Ive stripped the transformer out from inside...

    TOP PIN = BLACK
    CENTER PIN = GREEN (connected but NOT USED)
    BOTTOM PIN =WHITE

    So to clarify for anyone who comes across the same problem, pin 1 and 3 are the main a/c connections!...
    looks like pin 2 (center) is the ground although not used

    cheers tulsa for your input
