PS3 Tender Swap Question

No.  If you have a real PS-3 upgrade which is boiler board in engine and tender board intender and try to match that with a PS-32 board it won't work.  One is 6 pin the other 10.  One is a diesel board other is a steam.

You can swap PS-1 tenders and you can swap PS-3 6 pin PS-3 tenders for testing.  You can't mix and match different PS systems.  G

Oh heck, it's even worse than I thought.

This is the board in the engine setup with battery and breakout PCB in the tender.

You need a PS3 Upgrade Steam kit- the complete kit. You have to rewire an locate the board in the tender to be compatible.

Thank you both, I suspected as much, but wanted to doublecheck.  After doing two 3rd rail upgrades, doing a PS2 to PS3 upgrade will be a piece of cake.

You are going to loose a lot of lighting features if you move the board from the engine to the tender.

So these are not PS-3 upgrades.  These are PS-32 steam upgrades to be clear.

This is a silly question if you're doing the upgrade.  If you make it the same in both engine and tenders why couldn't you swap tenders.  They would be wire the same, just with different sound files.  G
