Whistle not working | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Isaak570OGR Forum Member

Hello,

I have just bought On the second market an Hudson Mth.

The reverse unit is working, but when I activate the whistle on the controller, no sound!

Where is the problem? What can I check to found the problem?

Thanks

How can a forumite say where the problem is without analyzing the loco? Suggest you start by giving loco model number and describe whether you are running conventional or otherwise.

Sorry, it's a Hudson MT-1103 4-6-4 Rail King No. 5344 used with conventional controller.

I only know the name of the the electronic unit : DCRU

Well, with that set of boards, I can assure you he's running conventional!

Which "conventional controller"? How is it connected to the track? Does the bell work?

I use the Cw80 lionel.

I have others mth with electronic whistle, and it's works.

I have tried to invert the 2 wires of the output, but same result, no whistle.

There's is no bell on this locomotive, only the whistle.

Now that he has released the data, GRJ, I would agree with you.
