The motherboard manual (it's also used in HP computers) is at this site:

JFP1 posts are used as follows:
1-3 are used for HDD LED
2-4 Power LED
5-7 Reset switch
6-8 Power switch

You will need to trace the wires to see which functions they have.
You should have 3 to 4 sets of wires - I don't understand only 3 wires total. All my cases have the connectors marked with the above IDs.
the LED connector is polarized - so if the LED doesn't work reverse the wires.

Good Luck - bye the way I spent over 1/2 hour researching your problem. A thank you would be nice.
