AC Motor TMCC Upgrade: Wiring Images

Mikado 4501OGR Forum Member

For those who have upgraded Lionel engines that have Pullmor motors to TMCC via ERR's AC Commander, I would like to see how you wired the capacitors, wires and whatever else you did to the motor. I.E. Images of the motor after all the work in good clear definition.

Specifically for engines like the USA scale Hudsons, T-1's, Mohawks, etc. I'm upgrading a Lionel 18005 Hudson right now, and have wired both capacitors to ground, but it does not move. I want to ensure the wiring is correct, as I did follow from the instruction manual.

I wired things the same on a Lionel MPC Hudson, and it works 100% fine, but I also noticed that the hot and the ground had the same connection, but did NOT result in shorts.

If anyone can help me in this area, that would be great. Thank you~
