If that doesn't work you can hook up a 3V supply directly to the LED and see if it powers.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the replies. Bill, I didn't know that the two pin had to be plugged in. In fact, I didn't see a place to plug it in. the instructions say the red LED will not be used so I figured it didn't need to be plugged in. What I thought was a void right below the 3 pin, actually had a dummy plug in it. I pulled the dummy plug and inserted the 2 pin and let there be light. Moving the left stick to the right after sliding the trim to the right turns them on and off. Thanks for the help guys.
