Static / intermittent sound LC+2.0 Berk | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I need some assistance diagnosing the static / intermittent sound issue with my LC+2.0 Berkshire

i attached a quick video - you might have to turn up the volume-

there is static in the sound when the drawbar connection is in place - the sound cuts out when the drawbar is moved such as when the engine is on a curve.

I did spray the contacts with CRC and gently ran a toothpick between each fin on the mating parts of the drawbars in case there was something stuck in there. That’s about all I can think of myself -

thank you in advance -

I'd try some contact rejuvenator like Deoxit-D5 on the connector.

good suggestion - I had run out of de oxit and thought using CRC might work. I'll get some more De Oxit and try it. Thanks again
