Note
- Component Video Cables are sold separately.
- The Wii mini is only compatible with Wii AV Cables. Ensure you are using the Wii AV Cables that came packaged with the system.
- If the cables you are using to connect the Wii to your television have only three connectors, they are most likely the Wii AV cables.
Complete these steps
- Locate the audio/video input jacks AND the component input jacks on the TV.
- Inputs are typically located on the back of the TV, but occasionally are on the sides, top, or bottom. They may also be located behind a hidden panel or door in the television.
- Look for inputs marked "Audio and Video in".
- Do not connect the system to anything marked "out".
- Connect the rectangular plug of the Component Video Cable into the Digital AV Out port on the back of the Wii console.
- Connect the Component Video Cable to the television as follows. (Note that the Red and White audio cables are bound together with a black band labeled "audio.")
- Red: Pr/Cr (Red)
- Blue: Pb/Cb (Blue)
- Green: Y (Green)
- White: Audio input left (or Mono)
- Red: Audio input right
- If the TV is capable of displaying Progressive Scan, Progressive Scan mode will need to be enabled after the connection is complete in order for the console to output a Progressive Scan signal.
- Once the cables are inserted and the Wii is powered on, find the Input Select for the TV to view the game. This is typically found by pressing the TV/Video button on the television's front panel or remote control. If there is more than one input channel, keep pressing TV/Video until you see the display from the Wii.
- If you do not have a TV/Video button, then the input could be labeled something different. Some common input selects to look for on the TV or remote are: Input, Input Select, EXT, AUX, AV, or a channel such as 00 or 99.
