controller pinout on mobo

which pins for the controller on the mobo are power/data? i kinda lost the plug for my controller so i can't figure it out and i tried searching but couldn't find it.

Use a multimeter. I think one is 5v, one is ground and one data.

red=5v
black=ground
white=data

I THINK.

i know the white one is data, the black one is ground, and the red one is power, i just need to know where to connect them on th emobo. thanks for trying though. the problem with a multimeter is i need the plug for the controller to test it

yeah sky, think for a minute... if there are 3 power pins... how dows the controller work... magic?

in general though, nothing uses negatvie voltages except computer motherboards.

That was assish, tim.

I suppose I misunderstood the question.

how ironic, i helped Jeffslot wire his cart the right way and then wired mine the wrong way

time to relocate a cart slot for the 4th freakin time!!! BLAAAH! just thought i'd say this, i'm feeling pretty stupid right now
