Need Help With Dream Station Power Supply

Need Help With Dream Station Power Supply
Hi All, I think my power supply went bad to my dream station. I cannot get a voltage reading on the 12 volt end. Anyway I cracked open the power supply case and noticed there are 3 leads going to the 12 volt plug. I want to cut the plug off and hook it up to another generic 12 volt power supply I have, and need to know what the three wires are about and their polarity. 

I am guessing that the black is ground and the 2 white wires are  both12 volt? Does the heater have a separate 12 volt feed? It looks like that plug has 3 contacts.

Thanks in advance.

If you decide it too much trouble, search Amazon for, "power supply for philips dreamstation". There are KFD brands for $25 or less. I have been using this brand on my Resmed devices with excellent results.

RE: Need Help With Dream Station Power Supply
Thanks for the help, I have been searching on what I think is the model number and it is not real clear on which one. I know that it is 12v and it needs 7 amps but I am worried about the end plug. The plug looks to be 3 conductor in the one I have. I have amazon prime and free returns but I don't want to blow my cpap trying it out.

My model number from my cpap is dsx500t11c. I search on that number and this charger comes up, although there is no reference on the page of that number. Any tips here?  I posted an attachment of the page since I am prohibited from posting links yet.
