Alco S2

I purchased a DCC Ready Alco S-2, I removed the shell but see no plug for the decoder, where would a decoder be placed and what type?

On the top of the pc board you should see a rectangle receptacle. There may be a dummy plug inserted in it right now. Remove the dummy plug and plug in the decoder.

You must have been looking for a plug instead of a socket. lol

Stu,

You must have an engineering degree, cause you figured out the hard part and left the obvious to the operator.

Glad I could help. Did not want to say this but I cheated and did what Rich tells everyone "look in the parts diagram it's right there in front of you" he was right.
Mine is the sound value one and if I'm correct (maybe not) I believe the decoder is board style not plug and play.
