Poor guy needs help.

You are having a problem with using IE 9. Click on the paper icon above your toolbar, to use compatible mode for these forums. Then your posts will show up.

 ABout as easy as they come, remove shell, remove the dummy plug board ont he 9 pin plug, plug in the decoder, restore shell.

 Good inexpensive decoder is the NCE D13SRJ, just remove the wire pigtail and 9 pin plug, then plug decoder into loco. Save wires for future use. Or a TCS T1A if you want to step up to BEMF.
