You don't need to connect _anything_ to the red (+5v) wire. That was the reason I asked for a pic of the underside; nothing is connected to it.
Twist the 2 black ones together to make it easier and attach you clear wires to the black and the yellow; it makes things simpler that way.
Too late, I already did it, and it works.
Alright, I just tried wiring something else, and to make it easier I connected both black wires to one wire and the red wie to the remaining wire, and cut off the yellow. It didn't work though. Any possible reason for it not to work? Could a wire that's too long cause the problem? Or perhaps it really does need the yellow. I'm looking at the circuit myself and I think the yellow is needed.
Well that would explain why the yellow was needed then. I hooked up the yellow and it worked. I thought yellow was 5v, as that's what was said above.
So I guess I can disconnect the red wire then? That'll make things a lot easier for me, one less long wire to worry about.
Assuming what you are connecting only uses 12v (like what you have shown so far for the cathodes and sound activation modules) you only need the yellow wire and the black wire next to it.
That will give you your 12v supply with the minimum amount of wires.
