I cant figure out the wiring diagram
I wired up my late tiger tank and the only thing that works so far is the left and right tracks...the turret turn and elevation is not working. Does anyone have any suggestions..I looked at the wiring diagram and I cant figure it out 100% maybe some one has a better diagram? thanks for the help

Hi Michael,
One time when I reworked the wiring in my Panther, I forgot to reconnect the elevation limit switches and it took me awhile to figure out that they were necessary to complete the entire circuit. I think it only affected the elevation though.
Are the electronic switches working when you try traverse or elevation? You should hear a soft 'click' noise when you move your radio stick/switch. If no, check that your radio control stick and receiver to electronic switch is correct. If yes, check if power to motor plug is correct.
Just some thoughts. Good luck
Regards
Tim

Thank you for this information.
I can now see that your turret sub loom has a problem
You should have
Switches
1 black
7 black
Switches
3 black
4 black
Elevation motor
2 black
8 green/yellow
Firing unit
5 black
6 black
If you can change these connections everything will work. If you can not, send the turret sub loom back to us for correction. We apologise for this problem in our wiring
Regards
Walter
