When I run my trains, the lights work in opposite direction of travel. ie when I go forward, the rear lights of theengine work and vice a versa. How can I get that changed so that the lights are in line with the direction of travel?

Thanks

Frank, Fred, Fletcher,

To change it, it depends on: if analog what type of loco, what type of decoder if digital: has it an 8 pin plug ?, what type of decoder, manufacturers name, if ESU you would need a loco programmer to change it or change the light wires from front to back. has anybody done any work on your loco ?

regards.,

John

It applies to all my locos making me wonder whether it has something to do with how I have set up my Delta and connections. My three locos are
3021 v200
3357
3040

I can’t remember anyone having serviced them. But then again I haven’t used them for 25 years and can’t remember what I did at the time when I introduced the Delta system to my set.

I am using a 16A transfo and the Delta selector (4 connections)

Hi!
So maybe it was always like that because lights were wired the wrong way around in the first place.
With Delta decoders, swapping wires in the locos is the only option I'm aware of.
Swapping wires between Delta controller and track or between transformer and Delta controller probably won't make any difference.

Do the wires for front and rear lights have different colours with your decoders? If so, make sure the lights are wired correctly. If so, swap the blue and green wires going to the motor.
