<p>The wheel slip alarm should sound in the lead motor.  But as you said before if the electircal jumper is not connected between the motors, then it will not sound, or light up.  I know working as a student enginner for the TPW we had the TPW 4020 that would always give a false wheel slip, so we had to learn to ignore it.  Say if we had the TPW 3830 in the lead with the TPW 4020 in trail, the 4020 would throw a wheel slip light and the 3830 would show wheel slip.  It had been reported to mechanical many time, and the train master even knew about it.  But they could not get it fixed.  </p><p>CSX Enginner, would this not be a defect that the motor should be taken out of service till it was fixed?</p>
