Hi all -
I'm new to the forum and new to DCC.
I just installed a Digitrax DZ-125 in my 2-8-0 which ran fine on dc, light and all.
BTW, this decoder fits nicely after trimming the shrink close to the board opposite the wires.
Should fit any others with the same or more room in the boiler.
Since the decoder install, it runs fwd/rev, programs, but I have no light.
Default is directional lighting, the lightboard is connected blue/blue, white/white so it should work as before.
Seems I ran across mention somewhere of a resistor needs removing, mebbe?
If I get this sorted out, would decoder white & yellow to lightboard white give light-on all the time?
Any thought/suggestions appreciated.
regards,
Terry
