John & Mark, The following info is from the instructions (SPS4423-1) included with kit 231523: NOTE: CTC185 Regulator Kit -- Note this kit in ONLY for CTC185A, B, C, D, M, N, AA, and AB chassis. IT will NOT WORK in CTC185A2, A3, B2, B3, C2, C3, D2, D3, M2, M3, N2, N3, AA2, AA3, AB2, and AB3 versions. These chassis have a different regulator circuit that use an STP12NB30 for Q4114. Contents: (1) 231523 (Q4114), with insulator (1) 227362 (CR4111) (2) 176296 (CR4112 & CR4113) (1) 184980 (R4136 - 143K Ohm 1/4W) (1) 231525 (U4103) (1) 232206 (C4106 - .47uF) There's more info in the instruction sheet, but can't type all day! Hope this helps.
