Lighting control board and spring contacts LED upgrade

If it were me, I wouldn't use those spring loaded things. I would wire direct and use a male/female plug if you really want to separate the shell from the body. I don't wanna take passenger cars apart more than once.

I like to use the springs if possible, makes it easier to disassemble the cars.  I always stretch the springs when I have the car apart to make sure I don't have to take the car apart again.

 

If they go direct to the light control board, you may be stuck with the idea of using a connector and losing the spring contacts.

 

I don't know what those look like inside, so it's hard to be specific.  I normally open up the first of a set of cars and decide how I'm going to do the wiring from there.

 

Thank you gentlemen for your reply. Quick question can I use the lighting control with the GRJ LED special? What I was thinking was to use one set of wire that went into the light bulb and wire them instead into the GRJ special LED system.   In the past I have take wiring off the MTH wire bus on the passenger cars and wire them directly in to the GRJ special LED system. Same principal just a different system wiring system. Would that work or I missing something?

It's not clear what you're suggesting Kris, so I'm not sure.  As I said, I just use the springs as a connector, either to the LED strip or track power to the power module stuck in the ceiling.  Any other circuitry doesn't enter into the picture.
