This way; wires over the caps.

Gerhardt , this photo of Jon G's is taken from the opposite side of your otiginal photos . It might be close to what your board looks like.

The two white cylinders in his photo are part of the group of " caps" that Jon mentioned to carefully bend down.

After doing that , make sure as many of the wires in the bundle are moved overtop of the "caps".

Lastly , you will notice the large red and white and yeiiow wire connector. Next to the right of that you will notice a small copper ringed donut like device on the board .......make sure to keep the wires away from that as much as possible.

You could carefully disconnect that red and wellow and white wire connector and plug it back in a couple of times. ( after this engine sat for quite some time there could be slight oxidation present )

Gerhardt , for your DCS , are you using the Z1000 ( or Z750 or Z500 ) ...... and then the DCS TIU...... and handheld REMOTE ?
