Solution Description/Service Details:

LED lights were missing 1K resistors. These were fitted. However during diagnosis, the back up light circuit was burnt out. Remapped FX3 circuit to rear light by CV58 to
32+16+8+4 =60(62 will work), CV57 to 32+16+8+1 = 57 (from 62 default). Set CV31 to 16, CV32 to 1 then changed CV259 to 0 and CV258 to 24. This remapped FX3 to back up and vice versa. Changed Prime Mover sound to FDL16 ( CV123 to 3).
CRITICAL TO NOTE : Back up light circuit functions but at low voltage and is on all time.
