From http://www.Digitrax.com/dash9app.htm website, I quote;
[11. Lights- For half-wave operation, cut the contact strip at the back of the light fixture approx. 1/4" long and solder the white/yellow decoder lead at that point.
Note: If you desire full-wave operation, you will need to devise a different method of mounting the light bulbs, then use the blue decoder wire for light common.]
OK, now here's the questions! (I'm installing a DH121 into an Athearn SW1200)
Half-wave operation = one bulb, full-wave = two bulbs?
Do I solder BOTH yellow and white wires to the contact strip and use the black as (chasis) light common if I'm only using the front (one) bulb?
I'm a little unsure about this!
Other wise, the unit is up and running, albeit with no lights!!
