The wire colors on the little LED printed circuit board are: Gray (light front?), Yellow (light back?) and Purple (electronic common?) Is this correct? Connecting it to a Loksound MFX decoder as White (light front), Yellow (light back) and Blue (flicker free ground) doesn't seem to work.... Schematic of the led pcb woukd be very nice!!! The LED circuit board has three solder pads. From left to right the original wiring to the DELTA decoder is: /----------------------/ Gray Yellow Purple I soldered the following loksound mfx wires: /---------------------- / White Yellow blue Thanks in advance, Gert-Jan

Purple is the + line and Gray and Yellow are connected to earth respectively for light switching. As the diodes are integral part of the PCB they can not be polarised the other way around to make it function "normal" Besides, I blew up the diodes not taking notion putting a current damping resistor in series :-( Just ordinary lights do perfectly...plenty of space...Keep It Simple Sometimes.
