Hello I'm looking for a lighted circuit board part for my ez truss bridge with led light because mine had and smoke show and damaged? Is there a replacement for it? Let me know and thanks!

Have a good day

The Circuitron #1601 "Basic Flasher for LED's" should work. It's available from most of the on-line model railroading suppliers.

If at first you don't succeed, throw it in the spare parts box.

Is it easy to hook up and fix with some solder?

Look at this as part of Model Railroading 101, the chapter on Basic Repairs.  How much does that bridge cost anyway. You mess up the repair, you get a new one.

Yes. Two wires in, two wires out.

You mean model railroader 101 on YouTube about circuit lighted boards? What's does it mean when the led lights go on and off instead of normal when running the engine?

No, I just meant basic model railroading repairs in general.
