I just bought my first Tamiya kit. The build went well but my lights aren't working. Is there an easy way to trouble shoot this light unit?

No, the JS-2. And I found the problem. There are two LED's and two plugs coming from the light unit. I plugged in the 3 pin but not the 2 pin because I didn't see a place to do that. Then I noticed that there was a plug without wires directly below the 3 pin. Pulled out the dummy plug and plugged in the 2 pin and "let there be light" I think my confusion came partly due to the instructions saying that the red LED would not be used.

Thanks Kiaser, I'm waiting for the bearings to arrive from Hong Kong. Once installed, I'll put the return roller and road wheel caps on. I'm going to let the paint rest for a week or so before I start the weathering.

Thanks again, it is my first Tamiya tank and a fun build. I do like the control that the Tamiya electronics provide. I had to build one just to see what all of the hype was for myself.
