Default HELP! Just got a ALPINE DVA-5200

I received my Alpine DVA-5200 (DVD/VideoCD/CD player). It came with everything in the box but the product obviously was used. My question is, Anyone here have a pic of the POWER wires that it is supposed to come with?

The ones I got are Orange, Yellow, and Black. But on the instructions, it seems like it is missing 1 more wire AND it also lists different colors.

PLEASE HELP!

This is for the DVD unit, uhmm...I am talking about the 4pin plug on the back of this unit and that it only came w/ those 3 wires. I had attached the AI-Net cable since I have a CVA head unit w/ monitor and the Yellow Video cable as well. I then plugged the Yellow for Power and Black wire for ground. Didn't connect the orange cuz it was just for illumination. But ARE these the 3 correct wires used with this UNIT? So confused!

I just wanted to verify if I had received the correct power wires. Well here's the situation, I hooked up the AI-Net from the DVA to my CVA-1005 brain. Then I hooked up the Video cable from the DVA to the CVA AUX1. Then connected the power(Yellow wire) & Ground. Turned on my CVA and changed it to the DVD source and what I got was NO video feed & Choppy sound. What else do I need to do?

NEVER buy used audio equipment. and "REFURBiSHED" means some **** happened to it to cause it from functioning correctly. check this out for an example... even though it's "fixed" why do cars carry "accident" titles even thought they've been "fixed"? go figure.
