MTH RailKing MP-15 Coupler Issue | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I'm having an issue with my MTH RailKing 30-20959-1 MP-15 diesel Reading with PS3. The rear couple randomly opens when pulling a train. Otherwise the coupler operates normally, opening when fired from the DCS remote.

Any thing in particular to look for to correct this issue?

usually when the coupler randomly opens it because the spring in the coupler is weak or broken you can replace the spring or change the entire coupler assembly!

DD0000032

is the MTH part number
