Has anyone wired a LGB 3 wire points motor with a capacitor discharge unit. If so could you share the wiring sequence please?
 
nope but i have some old 3 wire motors if anyone needs them
 
I Have no idea what old 3 wire ones are worth

I have 2

all my points are the newer 2 wire ones
 
If I remember correctly the 3 terminal motors have a common return and the other two terminals are to throw the motor one way or the other. If so wire it is the way Peco point motors are wired: the return goes to the - terminal on the cdu and the two coil terminals go the the outer pins on a spdt switch. Wire the positive terminal of the cdu to the centre switch pin.
 
i've just checked one of the old ones i have, the centre is common , the outer terminals throw the motor one way or other
 
Thanks for all the replies. CDU now in place,wires between power source and switches,and working.
