Six to eight years ago I bought two new Lionel Legacy GP-7 diesels (6-28340, 6-28570). The front and rear headlights have never worked. I once was bold enough to take the body off one of them to look for a loose or broken wire, but nothing looked amiss. Since it happened to both, out of the box, I wonder if this is a known problem with a known solution. Any clues about possible easy fixes?

Bob, have you tried hitting the AUX2 button? That will turn the lights on and off.

OMG! I thought I'd tried that years ago, but perhaps I did it when the loco was off. It works. An eight-year problem solved in one response! Thank you.
Ha! Watch for the train brake lever too!

Bob ,
Love your you tube channel Video's and layout. I have never seen the Santa Fe GP's on any videos, are they Zebra Stripe paint scheme?
DANDEO50 - The two GP-7s I was referring to were Rio Grande and Western Pacific, no Santa Fe. Here are pictures of the ones I was referring to.
Always great to see posts from you Bob.Keep those youtube episodes coming.Nick
