Seeking Rail Sound board replacement | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

texastrainOGR Forum Member

All, I have a RS board in one of my Lionel St Fe F3 B units that has quit functioning. I would prefer to replace it with another Liontech RS board of same type and function. This board is one piece, draws power of the B unit truck, is triggered by detectors on the other truck as the unit moves. In reference to attached pictures:

Hot/Ground plug next to 1000 uf, 35V capacitor Trigger plug is next to coil, blue-green-yellow wires Speaker plug to board next to trigger plug, two red wires Select switch lower left of chip, two black wires Volume switch plug to board upper left of chip, blue-black-brown wires

Yes, I do realize to use ERR products would be easier to do. But, I do not require this to be a TMCC activated/accessed effect, the original rail wheel/axle triggered sound is preferred and acceptable.

Thanks,

Jesse TCA 12-68275

These boards are on Lionel's site, you reuse your sound and control chip....

Marty, Thanks, I will attempt again to locate on the Lionel site. The volume switch wires are listed as the plug is located to the upper left of the chip, with blue-black-brown wires.

Again, many thanks, sir.......

Jesse,

I sent you an e-mail. I have a few extra RailSounds 2.5 boards.

I was referring to the volume knob below the speaker and maybe check the wires going to the speaker.

Thanks so much, hope this is all it requires, but I am certain that is it.
