Title: Help with rewiring Sony 20" with 13W3 cable
Post by: diverdown on October 05, 2006, 08:20:59 pm

I recently acquired a HP A4331a monitor. The RGB cable was severed and I dint have the end of it. All I had was a pigs tail bit sticking out the back of the monitor.
I have decased the tube and disconnected the wire from the chassis.

It appears to have been a 13w3 cable. below

 I would love to turn it back into a standard cable. I would settle for being able to return it to a 13w3 and then buy an adapter.

How easy would this be?
I can solder and follow directions, but as i dint know which colour wires mean what is it just too hard. i can get the RGB and grounds but there a re a few red brown white wires i am not to sure about.
