Standard Gauge 402E Pendulum Reversing Unit Problems

How do you fix problems with the Pendulum Unit inside a 402E??  The loco only changes directions manually by moving the lever on the one end of the motor housing.  I would like it to change directions electronically at the transformer.   My 380E does this perfectly, but I cannot get my 402E to do the same thing.  It works great in both directions, but I have to switch directions manually.  How do I fix this?  Thanks.
