Switch Mystery Solved
Posted by Fred Bear on Sunday, May 14, 2006 4:58 AM
I was reading Greensburg book last night on 022's and discovered my mistake. Those that wrote in kept saying there could not be power once the fixed voltage plugs were in place. I have 4 switches on this cross, and two of them came without plugs, so I soldered wires on the stud. Well, that is the mistake, as the plug is what pushes the spring aside and disconnects the power to the track. Once I did that, problems over. Thanks to all that wrote in, much appreciated. Now if I could just discover when the may flies would hatch on a regular basis and the caddis as well! Jake
