Pic below is with the black box off the eletronic assembly.

The monitor power most probably has a little jacck connector somewhere that may have come disconnected, or you could have just blown a fuse.

So the power feed to the monitors isn't in the S-video cable? I assumed it was since I didn't see other wires going into the seat near the S-video cable. I'll take another look (wasn't looking for the possibility earlier) and if I do find a separate power wire then troubleshooting should be a breeze.

Good idea and thanks.
