Decoder install question

<< < (2/2)

KPack:
I'm willing to, just need to work out the details of how the shipping would go and how much to charge.  I've done plenty of installs for myself but have never done any for someone else.  I need to figure out a fair price that would cover my time, materials, and shipping back.

 Thank you Kevin,
       I would like to take you up on the offer. We can certainly discuss the price. I quite frankly do not know how much you need to charge either. I'm sure we can come to an agreement OK. I looked at the  engines a little closer and I don't see any plugs that resemble a six pin or nine pin  configuration on any of my locomotives. They are all 2 pin  plugs into various areas of the decoder  coming from various lights, speaker and of course the motor pick ups.  In looking at the decoder instructions from ring, I see that resistors need to be put in line with the LEDs. I do understand why. It appears like these engines of mine do have LEDs. They are all less than three years old. I guess the  current decoders must have resistors built into them because the two pin leads go straight to the LEDs without resistors connected. That would certainly be another issue to address I am assuming.  We can exchange email or phone numbers however you would like to get in touch Kevin.  And thanks also Bill and the others for chiming in. Looks like a great bunch of guys on this forum. I am very much looking forward to operating with this new system.
