Dash-8 Diesel Locomotive 21

6. Lights are located at the front and rear of the cab as seen in Figure 20 and 21. Burned

out bulbs can be removed by unplugging the light and replacing. Additional bulbs are

installed under the cab roof of the body. Figure 21 shows the low number board bulb

location. Engines utilizing high number boards will have a set of connectors in place of

the bulbs. The bulbs will be located above the cab windshield and will require that the

cab interior be removed in order to gain access to the bulbs. The interior is held in place

by clearly visible phillips screws.

To Replace:

Gently pull the wires until the bulb comes free of the housing. Push the new bulb into

place and reconnect the wires.

The special NiCad AA self-charging

batteries recharge continuously during train

operation and should last between one and

five years. The batteries should not leak or

cause any damage to your engine.

Depending upon when your engine was built,

it may need to be charged right out of the

box. If engine sounds seem distorted or

garbled at low voltages or become silent

when power from the transformer is turned

off, test the battery to determine whether it

should be recharged or replaced.
