Maintaining and servicing your set
Troubleshooting
No lights or operation
Be sure that the CW-80 Transformer is plugged in and the wires are connected.
Train runs, but WHISTLE, BELL, and DIRECTION buttons do not work
Check track connections. The track must be connected to the "A" and "U" terminals on the
Transformer.
No change when DIRECTION button is pressed
Be sure that your locomotive's reverse unit switch is ON.
Accessory operation is intermittent or absent
Check for loose, shorted, or improper connections. Also, the accessory voltage may have been set too
low for the accessory; refer to page 18 and reset the voltage to a higher level.
Locomotive runs slowly or lights dim at the far end of the track
On larger layouts, additional track resistance may cause reduced track voltage as the trains move
away from the power terminal section. Install additional FasTrack terminal sections around your
layout and connect them to your Transformer to distribute power.
Green light begins to flash
The power limit of the Transformer has been exceeded. The unit will gradually reduce power until the
problem is corrected.
Bell button blows whistle
Switch the wire connections at the Transformer terminals. The U terminal should be connected to the
outside (common) rail.
