I'm FINALLY getting around to starting my long-dormant 'proper' Express build. I'm using one of Allyn's chassis, and a set of Pacific iron, also purchased from Allyn.
Question: The pactran wiring diagram for the OT posted by rhinson (thanks!) shows the secondary wiring with the gray wire being the 16 ohm tap, and the red wire being the 4 ohm tap.
When I examine the well-done wiring layout drawing posted in the Trainwreck Files section, THAT drawing appears to have the red wire being the 16 ohm tap and the gray wire being the 4 ohm tap.
So I admit that I may be interpreting the layout drawing wrong, or it may be drawn for a different OT...
For those who have done your build with the Pacific OT, did you wire it like the pactran wiring diagram?
Thanks.
Pacific OT/Express - hookup?

The pacific wiring is noted in the layout file here. Pay attention to the notes on the pdf at the bottom as the picture is for the older heyboer unit i believe[/i]
Express OT
Red = 4
Yellow = 8
Gray = 16
Just checked mine & sure enough I've got it backwards.

Thanks, everyone...
Which PDF and which notes are you referring to? I had those pactran wiring diagrams already, and I don't see any notes in the PDF of the Express layout I downloaded from here, oh so long ago...JamesHealey wrote:The pacific wiring is noted in the layout file here.

Not sure what your looking for so I will post this layout.
I built an Express with Allyn's chassis and his Pacific transformer set and this was how I wired mine.
