Wiring a decoder to a Bachmann Heisler

A friend has a Large Scale Bachmann Heisler and wants to add a decoder. I’ve looked on the Bachmann site for manuals, but I don’t know which manual to pick to understand the wires. The board inside the Heisler looks like this:

Heisler board

Can someone please help me identify the wires and possibly find the manual for this loco?

Also, does anyone know if this loco has LED or incandescent?

Does not appear to be a manual/exploded diagram on the Bachmann site.

You may just have to figure it out yourself. (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-surprised.gif)

Ray I would suggest that you message Stan Ames I know that he has a Heisler with a decoder in it and he has been in DCC longer then anybody I know.

Perhaps George Schreyer’s Bachmann Heisler Tips page will be of help.

Good post Mark I usually go to George’s tips. Ray all of your answers are there led’s wiring diagrams and pictures.
