96RAF Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 That would depend upon your decoder. Some allow CV mapping and others don't.Failing that it is a hard wiring fettle - i.e. connect both white and yellow wires to your front lights.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkingthedog Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 It wouldn't have white lights at the front going in reverse but I expect you know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul.b Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yeah i know but the young grandson would like them on when going in reverse so was trying to sort it for him if there is no way to do it by cv i will have to do as Raf said and connect the white and yellow wires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Pity you can't get them to turn red, bet he'd like that even more 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Its a tts model if that makes a difference r3395 tts i thinkYou cant remap functions on a TTS decoder so it would be a case of adding a link on the decoder socket to join pins 2 and 6. For a quick one-off you could bridge the decoder plug pins with a link rather than lift the socket again. Then no matter which direction you are going the front lights will be on. No good if you have rear lights as both ends will be on at once in both directions.Rob /media/tinymce_upload/430d4d7be1c99a2c03605c7725ab35f8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
