I am going to install a cruise commander m into my lionel 6-28838 H16-44 with odyssey.

I have two quick questions before installing it. One is the duty out wire. What is this for?

Second question is in the instructions. Specificaly the part covering  the sd80 with odyssey cruise. (I assume this install applys to my engine also) It says to cut the wires from the six pin molex connector. Then it states to splice the red and black wire to the red and black wire on the 4 pin molex connector supplyed to attach to the cruise m board. The black wire as show in the picture provided comming from my engine 6 pin molex is just looped from one connection to another on the molex connector. So is the black wire on the 4 pin molex connector used in my installation application? Screenshot_20170717-164039Screenshot_20170717-164233

So george the red wire is going to the center collector roller and the black wire is going to the ground correct. At least in the sd80 engine in the instruction install  described in the instuction manual. What or where do I hook the black wire from the 4 pin too since the black wire on my 6 pin  is not going to anything. Its just connected to the 6 pin only going  into the two holes show in my photo. Should I find the black ground wire comming from the truck frame and hook the black wire into this one? Do you follow me?

If I understand you correctly. Red wire = ac hot( center roller). Black wire = ac ground( attatched to truck frame). The blue and yellow wires are the motor leads that attach to the 4 pin gray wires as per the instuctions. Correct?
