5. Lights are located at the front and rear of the cab as seen in Figure 21 and 22. Burned
out bulbs can be removed by unplugging the light and replacing. Front light bulbs are
installed under the cab roof of the body. These bulbs are located above the cabinterior
roof and will require that the cab interior and interior roof be removed in order to gain
access to the bulbs. The interior is held in place by clearly visible phillips screws.
To Replace:
Gently pull the wires until the bulb comes free of the housing. Push the new bulb into
place and reconnect the wires.
Self-Charging Battery Back-Up
The special NiCad AA self-charging batteries recharge continuously during train
operation and should last between one and five years. The batteries should not leak or
cause any damage to your engine. Depending upon when your engine was built, it may
need to be charged right out of the box. If engine sounds seem distorted or garbled at
low voltages or become silent when power from the transformer is turned off, test the
battery to determine whether it should be recharged or replaced.
