Preparing The Chassis For The
PS-2 Upgrade
Before you can install the PS-2 components into your locomotive, any existing
sound boards or reversing units must be removed. The PS-2 Kit contains all the
necessary electronics your locomotive requires to operate. Some existing
mounting brackets may be utilized during the installation of the PS-2
components. Follow the instructions below taking care to save the parts when
noted.
Remove The Following Items From The Locomotive Chassis
- Body shell (save the mounting screws).
- Proto-Sound 1, DCRU Reverse Unit, Mechanical Whistle, Electronic Whistle,
any other electronics and harnesses.
- Speaker (save mounting hardware).
- Existing couplers (save the "T" bars, springs, and c-clips).
- Any lights including the headlight and marker LEDs (if present).
These will likely be mounted inside the body shell.
- Do
NOT
remove the volume pot or smoke unit ON/OFF switch (if present)
used on Proto-Sound 1 models. If your locomotive does not have a volume pot,
order BI-0000040 (volume pot), IA-0000035 (screw), ID-0000071 (spacer),
And IC-0000006 (nut).
- Do
remove red wires connected to pickup roller assembles.
NOT
-
Note: Leaving a short piece of color coded wire on each motor terminal will
help ensure that the new motor wires are hooked up to the correct motor
Terminals and allow each motor to run in the same direction.
