Tricolor working After posting http://nikimat.com/mast_tricolor_anchor_light_connection.html I Learnt the "black box" was a voltage regulator. The same component were not available, so I purchased other. After many tests, I concluded the new voltage regulators were faulty and connected the wired directly.
Now the "Tricolor" light is working

Picture below: In the electrical compartment (near forward head) I have identified the following:
Coming from the 24 Volt Panel:
"Negative" which I refer to "5" (Yellow arrow 5) |
Picture below: I disconnect both red Wire (1) and (2) Test 11 (Tricolor OFF and Anchor OFF on 24 Volt panel)
Voltage from Tricolor Red Wire (1) to Negative (5) = 0 Volt (which is normal)
Test 12 (Tricolor ON and Anchor OFF on 24 Volt panel)
Voltage from Tricolor Red Wire (1) to Negative (5) = 25.94 Volt (which is normal)
Test 13 (Tricolor OFF and Anchor ON on 24 Volt panel)
Voltage from Tricolor Red Wire (1) to Negative (5) = 0 Volt (which is normal)

Now connected directly together:

Test 8 (Tricolor ON and Anchor OFF on 24 Volt panel)
Voltage from Tricolor Red Wire (1) to Negative (5) = 26.14 Volt (which is normal)
I can Visually Check outside the light is working.
Test 9 (Tricolor OFF and Anchor ON on 24 Volt panel)
Voltage from Tricolor Red Wire (1) to Negative (5) = 0 Volt (which is normal)
I CAN NOT see the Anchor light outside. Note the pictures below:
When I switch on the Anchor switch on the 24 Volt Panel (especially when dark), I can see a little light on the Tricolor and vice versa

Other experience, connecting a BULB (which is actually my spare tricolor and anchor light device) to check if the current goes.

Pictures below:
I climb on the mast. At first I cleaned the connector, no improvement
