Look inside and and follow the power from the connector.
First, the center pin should go to the supply bits, not to ground.
That shows the center pin is + or -.

Then see what they're using for a regulator. The input will have
to be more than that.

Does it have a bridge rectifier? If so the supply was probably AC,
but you can use a DC supply with it.

Lastly, first try a +5 v supply, if that doesn't work, then try a
+12 v supply.
