Lionel TMCC upgrade problems
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, October 13, 2003 6:57 PM
i currently upgraded a lionel Dash-9 and a C-420 to train master command control but i seem to have problems with the smoke units on both the engines. when i run them, the smoke unit pulses. is there anyway to fix this?

also, on the C-420, the head lights dont work properly, they will flicker while the engine is in nutural and shut off when its in drive. the lights worked fine before it was upgraded and i switched the upgrade boards in the engines around to see if it was defective, which it was not. is there anyway to fix this problem too?

If you used the Train America Studious systems give them a call, or an e-mail. I've found them to be most helpful when I ran into a problem (mine turned out it was a bad speaker). If Lionel by a train shop take it back or call Lionel tech service.
