My old 1033 type transformer does whistle the whistle; which should eliminate the actual whistle. I do not have a set operating instructions or a schematic of the KW. So if anyone has any suggestions or copy of the manual I would greatly appreciate. Steve
What year/model whistle tender? If made after 1969, it is polarity sensitive.
Try swapping the wires to the track before tearing into the KW.
Remember, post "U" to the outside rail w/ KW, post "A" to the outside rail w/ 1033.
