Reply to "ERR upgrade for a Lionel 6-18385 Lionel H16-44"

OK.  Command and sounds are installed in this and running well.  Interestingly, when I went to hook up the couplers, there is only one wire.  This did not hit me until I went to hook them up.  There is a two wire connector for the ERR board.  I assume Lionel has the couplers grounded through the frame?  Any suggestions on which post on the ERR to hook up the lone wire ( or maybe I need newer couplers)?

Also, once again... the lights.  This is now my 5th ERR install.  2 Williams, 1 Sunset, 1 MTH and now this Lionel.  I have been disappointed that, although all have had LEDs available, I so far have been advised against being able to hook these to the ERR board.  I am baffled that they did not design the ERR light hookups to accept LEDs.  So... is that really correct or can I run these to the front and rear light hook ups?  In this case specifically, the Lionel body has a wiring harness, 1 black, 1 red and 2 purple.  If I am allowed to use this set up, what goes where on the ERR board?

Thanks again!
