Lighting Your Model / Wiring a tortoise switch machine so a bi-color LED with light yellow
« on: November 02, 2020, 03:11:15 PM »
Hello all,
I got into a project to try to light a bi-color LED yellow simply by using the contacts on a Tortoise switch machine. I've succeeded with the help of a friend, but the yellow LED lights when the turnout is lined for the main track instead of the passing siding. I've tried several variations of re-wiring to get it to light yellow for the siding, but no luck.
Any ideas would be helpful and appreciated.
