Thanks for diagram - unfortunately, my TAS motherboard differs slightly, it is a ver. 1.5 and has only 3 pins versus the 4 in your board. However, it is not a problem as I will not be using the motherboard.

Thanks also for the link to the Turbo Smoke pdf file: it has told me that connect B relates to track feed to the heater element and I now know that good practice is to have an on/off track feed arrangement. I guess it could either be a simple on/off switch or a DCC function to control a relay (I'm told I need an AC Solid State, Zero Crossover switching relay!!). The heater element works.

I think I now need to work on power to the fan motor terminals C, which oddly had no wire feeds and does not seem to have any other feed via the circuit board.

Thanks again, for your assistance.

Dave
