I've incorporated the Radio City Music Hall on my layout. The building has 2 types of lighting: an internal bulb and marquis lighting. I've replaced the internal buib with a 12 VDC LED. The original 3 VDC power adapter feeds the marquis via a momentary push button switch when activated provides either a flashing marquis or full on illumination. Inside the switch assembly is a small circuit board. When the building is turned on, it comes up flashing first and requires a button push for full on illumination. I only want full on illumination. Can I provide 3 VDC directly to the marquis and eliminate switch assembly ? I'm not sure if the marquis is LED or incandescent. I don't want to inadvertently damage the marquis by eliminating the switch assembly which might provide LED current limiting or voltage change.
