Repair a terminal post on a KW? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

MoonmanOGR Forum Member

We have a KW at the Eagle Scout layout that needed a new cord, or so we thought. When we get inside two wires are disconnected from the back of a terminal post. The rivet flare is gone.

Can this be repaired? We need to get those two wires connected again.

Thanks.

You need p.n. T-159R. Give Jeff at the traintender a call. He has them. You might as well replace them all.

Ok,

It's the back of terminal C. There's some type ring that was on top of the solder lugs on the back of the terminal.

Can I fill the center of the lug with solder and try to connect the lug to the terminal post that is protruding out of the back? It looks fluted in the parts photo.
