Milwaukee F-7 4-6-4 decoder install (cont).
Marker LED's installed.
Normally, I have to drill holes in the boiler for the running board lights but, with skirting, only needed to glue them under the running boards.
No back head but cab is enclosed so still installed a cab light.
Tender frame holes drilled for speaker.
Eight wire connector from engine to tender and speaker connected. Wires to boiler frame LED's not connected. The previous owner changed the open frame motor to a can motor. The motor was only taped to the frame so I used some GE silicon caulk to secure it.
Decoderpro days all's good.
However, nada on the mainline. No sound or motor movement. I know it's got 'juice' since the boiler fire box LED is on.
Connected another tender and all's good so it's either a defective new decoder or my wires are incorrect even though decoderpro says they are OK. Getting late, will sleep on it.
