As a guess, I would reckon that the red would be power (but at what voltage and current rating??) and yellow would be video, but some specs and numbers of the LCD might help...

you said in your last thread that this was from a car, right?
that means that the power is most likely going to be 12v

brown- negative
red- +12v
yellow- video signal

this is my guess
i'll do some research for ya

The key here is to get a manual from starvision.  The 500z is not a valid starvision model number.  Try to find a different number somewhere.  Or, it may be part of a larger assembly.  Possibly not even a Starvision assembly.  Someone else may have integrated a starvision display into their model 500z.

yea i had it working in my car but then when i went and sold it to car max all i did was take out the dvd player and and replaced the headrest so i didn't look like their was anything their before. so when i sold it i forgot all about the power and rca cable that was left in the chair itself.
