Hi all, I just got a Lionel Hogwarts Express O guage Train Set (http://www.lionel.com/products...nv-loco-5972-7-11020). Everything seems to be running fine on the train with exception of when I try to run it with the smoke unit turned on.
When I turn the switch on to run the unit with the smoke unit switch turned on the CW80 transformer works for a split second and then gives me the blinking green light that something is wrong.
After reading a lot online I tried taking it apart to see if maybe a wire or connection was hitting the body of the set causing the short but no luck. Dont see anything wrong with it. How can I determine what is wrong with the unit? Is there anything common that goes wrong with these?
Like I said it runs fine if I turn the smoke unit off.
Additionally I found that if I leave the set at idle the passenger cars light up as normal but as soon as I turn the smoke unit on (Still at idle) the train lights begin to flicker.
Thanks
