   I need clarification on the pier button terminal configuration.   I didn't take good enough pics when taking apart.  manual only has a useless diagram  .for wires in my harness I have a 2 pin connector for power switch(one black one grey no polarity). I have another 2 pin connector for hdd led that designates polarity. then 2 single connectors for power led positive and negative.   the power switch connector confuses me because the board does not designate (power switch)

	Purple - Speaker header Green - Power LED Red - Power switch Yellow - HDD LED Blue - Reset switch They are always the same layout and it is labeled on the board but it can be hard to make out, the text is tiny. The + indicates pin 1 and where the connector goes. The header under the speaker connection is for the older, 3pin power LED. Modern cases no longer use them but ASRock still provides a header for legacy cases. Edited by Xaltar - 13 Feb 2022 at 7:04am

	All you really need to connect is the power switch connector, all the others are optional.
