I want to replace the original DC board with DCC socket, with a replacement Digitrax DH165AO DCC decoder board for my HO IHC GGI locomotive. How will I wire this DCC replacement board to my locomotive?
How many amps does your GG1 draw? Is there an exsisting light board in the loco? Is the motor isolated from the frame? Is there enought room for the DH165AO? What voltage are the lights?..

Why not use a decoder that will plug into the socket, therefore eliminating wiring issues. [%-)]

The four corner soldering/connection posts pick up power. Solder the wire from the front left truck to the front left corner tab, right front wire to the right front corner tab. The two tabs in between the power tabs in front and back are for lights; the two on the side go to the motor.
That’s all there is to it. [:)]
