How to open the 1.8 Amp accessory transformer??

for something like the Lionel Accessory transformer, it must be made to be tamper proof. IE: "No User Serviceable Parts Inside". I do not have one, so I can't say wether it can be opened without destroying the case partially, if not fully. Is the transformer working properly? if so, leave it alone.

Lot of times the rubber feet peal off or pull off to expose screws.

Thanks Marty,

Nothing under the large rubber feet at the bottom and the plastic pegs are in tight. Likely screws under the pegs but I'd like to be sure they need to come out before I remove them (and likely mess them up).

Thanks again,

Mike

Could just be a non-serviceable disposable unit? Don't know about this one, but I think some things are just made to be disposable now days.

I have opened one of those up. Had to use a Dremel and cut away plastic at points to get it open. The unit does not have screw attachments to open/close. It is basically heat sealed shut.

I forget exactly where I cut... I think I had to remove the knob and cut a square around that area. The tranny is in a box now but I could dig it out for pics if you need.

Thanks for the info!  A pic or two of the internal layout would be great, no rush.  I may be able to just drill a 3/8" hole at a safe location and get the offending (potential short) part out.  These are great little boxes and I would hate to toss it if it can be salvaged.  I've got a windmill that runs super on these and poorly on other types...

Thanks again, Mike

Sorry for the delayed response... I flat out forgot about this. :/

I'll dig out the tranny and take some pics tonight.

Thanks so much,  Looking fwd to seeing them!
