I got a ahm/rivarossi y6b for my birthday and one of the previous owners had done some mods to it one of them being they added a smoke unit and a switch to turn the smoke unit on and off. I am not sure which direction turns it on and which direction turns it off. also one of the wires that goes to the smoke unit has come unsoldered I am not sure where to solder it back on to. here is a video showing the system: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1xMD2Pjb0o If anyone can help me with this please let me know. Thanks!

It looks like the switch is in the on position in the video.
I couldn't see for sure, because there's a bit of glare in the picture, but it looked like there was an electrical contact across the bottom of the smoke unit from where the red wire was soldered on. That's likely to be where the yellow wire goes. Look closely and see if there's a tab there, similar to the one to which the red wire is soldered. Carpe Manana!
