I just connected a Miniatronics YelloGlo LED [3-4vdc, with a 470-ohm resistor in series] to the headlight output wires on a SoundTraxx DSD-AT100LC decoder, applied power, and - zero, zip, nada! Tried both polarities, and forward and reverse. Still no light.
The SoundTraxx manual doesn't even mention LEDs in the troubleshooting section, only bulbs. But when I put a 12v bulb on there, it only glows orange, not very bright at all. There's got to be a better way...
I know many people are using LEDs with decoders, and they're not all electrical engineers either. What's the Secret Handshake?
