MTH Steel Arch Bridge with Christmas Lights - wiring question

ted Kted KOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

I have a MTH Steel Arch Bridge with the Christmas lights - Item 40-1115 - it works fine but the flashing red light on top does not work - i found the wires are not connected and there is a circuit board that has two wires coming from it - but are not tied to anything  - see attached pictures - i was wondering how this is hooked up/wired?  the Lights on the bridge go into another  circuit board and work fine - i tried 12v directly to the two wires coming off the side of the bridge that were not connected to anything- the light comes on but of course does not flash - the problem i have is that i dont know how the two wires off the circuit board shown are connected or wired to the light on the bridge - doesn't seem like there is another connector on the circuit board for power - can anyone help?IMG_2775IMG_2774

Ted on page three of your owner's pamphlet for your bridge there is a photo of the top light hookup.    It appears to be on the underside of the board in your picture.

I had the bridge with the white LEDs and the top incandescent flashing bulb.

I diconected the flashing incadescenct  light on my bridge because I  didn't want to always be replacing it .   I had thought about replcing it with an LED.

thanks - i looked at the diagram (did not have one on the box so i got the manual off MTH website) and i do not have the two prong connector on the bottom of the circuit board - there are a few metal tips where the two prong connector would have gone - but mine does not have the female two prong connector - must have broken off - i will try getting another board of some type to work. dont know if MTH would have this part anymore -thanks again
