 Find your nintendo wii, power cable, HD/SD cable, and sensor bar.

-The power cable is the cord that  looks like a gray brick with an attachment for power on one end and a connection to the wii on the other.

-The audio video cable varies depending if you use a HD or SD cable. Both cables have a color code. The SD cable has the red, white, and yellow connections. But, the HD cable has one more set of connections. They are colored red, green, and blue.

-The sensor bar is the long, thin, and rectangular item.

Step 2: Locate Ports on Console
