First of all, the cord shown in post #1, is from an RCA or an RCA built GE.
The cord has four pins on the connector end. Two are used for 120 VAC. Another pair are used for 12 VDC. The DC cord is simular but has the cigarette lighter plug on it and using a different set of pins on the connector end.
