Better you than me Jim , hate to think what it would be like if I had attempted that ... I am sure you will get it working correctly ..good luck with it ..dave
Hey i have a question i did this process , but my lights arent working. Do i need to run that blue wire from the center of the board that went to the light to the decoder common?
Hi Brian, not 100% sure as it was over five years ago this fitout..best to use a multi meter tester to find out.. I did add a corless motor to this model too at some point.. Jim.
@@hovermotion i got it..i ended up removing the bulbs and using leds. Thanks for the video though, it was very helpful. I put a loksound sound decoder in it and it works great
Hi some are much harder to do e.g permanent double headed special set locos and locos with complex lighting , this is an easy one to do...once I sussed out the wiring. ..so I thought I would share this info....
Good stuff Jim. I like the way that you allowed us to discover with you. Thanks.
Hi Geoff,
It's fairly straightforward on this model once you know where to put each wire. ...

Thanks Dave..
It took some studying before doing this work..as I have never none one of these models before. ..and I am no electronics expert.......

If you have the pre-1999 ICE 1 Model, you can't fit a decoder like that, as the motor bogie chassis is live.
