Alco RS1 Electrical Diagram needed
Posted by larak on Saturday, August 2, 2014 9:42 PM

Hi all.

Does anyone know where I can find an electrical schematic for an ALCO RS1?  I need to troubleshoot an issue on the 1:1 scale.

Thanks,

Karl

Try TP600-11, about page 1204.

Outstanding, Northwest. Thank you.

We are having a problem shifting from series to S/P. A tap on the secondary relay helps. Suspect either a stuck coil, shorted turns or intermittant wiring to the coil. This should be very helpful.

Hi, Karl

All you need to do is wave this over the long hood with the track power off...

Then reapply the track power... good to go! Laugh
