DCC Decoder Light Help
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, February 5, 2003 3:58 PM
We have 2 wires left and 1 pin. A white wire and a blue wire. Pin #7. We have only a front headlight.
Thanks

Hello John,

The white wire is the positive feed for the front headlight, and the blue wire is the common back to the decoder for the front and rear headlights.

You should have the white wire coming from pin 6, then to the headlight. The other lead from the headlight should be connected to the blue wire, which is in turn connected to pin 7.

Hope this helps,
