Hello everybody,
I had an issue with my ef-3 b headlight not going on one side and I screwed up the board. I had the board replaced and all the lights work except the headlight will not go off. It goes on when I power up the track without any other lights going on. The light is very bright compared to the other headlight. Can I correct this with my remote?
Please advise what I can do, as usual thank you very much, Jerry

STOP. The FET is shorted and needs to be repaired on the board. Not sure why it was replaced before, the board are repairable. G
Thanks for your help!

Did not mean to be short. But if you continue to use it the bulb is getting full voltage and can get hot enough to melt a shell if plastic. Then bulb blows out. Hence the warning to stop using it until repaired. G
Bad things can happen if you run them with 18V on the bulbs!
Thanks guys will look into.
Best to all of you, Jerry
Hello all, I am just referring to the small light board not the main board. I blew that one out because I did not know it needed an insulator. My technical guy replaced the board but now I'm getting the condition I explaind before has a very bright light stays on all the time. He is now telling me that the main board may need a transistor? Please help and also advise where I can send my engine to with one of you guys to doing the repair. I live in Michigan so I would like the closest spot to send it to. I can be contacted at jba435@gmail.com. please send me a telephone number so I can go over the whole thing with somebody I may send it to.
Much much thanks, Jerry
