I have a culvert unloader with a fried circuit board and melted wiring. I may be able to repair the circuit board but would replace it if one was available. The fried wiring is a bigger problem. I would like to get the connectors with wires attached to do the necessary repairs. Can anyone provide parts or info on how to get them. Thanks

I have repaired the accessory before so I am very familiar. Also, minor typo it's 6-12983

So here's the problem, the most common mistake is someone wires power into the switch connection and this blows that control board sky high. Of even worse consequence, since it was a switch input, it kills the PIC microcontroller. That's the one thing, even if you got the part, you need the programming and nobody but Lionel has that. So the board is not "easily" repairable and I do component level repairs, but between killed traces and no processor chip, well it's not worth the time to try to fix that board specifically. The bad part is, that board is no longer available at Lionel parts. Given the age of these, we've resorted to just finding broken or damaged ones, parting them out to obtain parts at this point. Sadly, no I do not have any boards to sell- I would if I had any.
Those white connectors are leoco and just match the number of pins

The square black connector is Molex and you can find them here with wires
Some searching in the forum, maybe another member has that board 691-PCB1-OAF ? This post was a bit old https://ogrforum.com/...40#80973530198369340
