Galaga Help (power supply pinouts or other help needed)

Does anyone have the pinout for the power supply? I want to hook up a switcher to a Galaga cabinet. I need a link or someone to let me no which wires goes where. I know most of the yellows are ground, but need to no whats really what. I had about 20 Galaga machines pass my hand and I was always meaning to take a picture of the ones that had a switcher in it, but alway forgot too. Idon't understand with the last couple I had that everything works except for the coin up, sound & control panel. Doesn't matter if it is the original pcb or a jamma pcb with the adapter. I still get the same results. Would appreciate any help. Thanks
 
The smaller connector feeds AC voltage from the transformer to the power supply board. Don't mess with this connector. The larger connector is the DC voltage....

Orange wires = 12VDC
Red wires = 5VDC
All other wires go the gnd (yellow, yellow/black, yellow/white, yellow/violet, white/green...I think that's it)....EXCEPT for the solid white wire. The solid white wire is the supply voltage for the coin meter (I always leave it unconnected). The schematics lists it as 7.2 volts....I've never actually checked it to see what the voltage is. I guess if you wanted to keep the coin meter.....check the coin meter and see what voltage it's rated at. It's usually stamped on it's housing. Supply voltage accordingly.
