Kato Unitrack HO #6 electric turnout repair
Posted by rrlcommish on Sunday, May 3, 2015 10:18 PM

My turnout would not change directions manually or with power so I took it apart (carefully, upside down of course) and it appears there is a thin wire that makes the turnout change direction.  But I cannot for the life of me get it to work.  I even took apart another working one to see how it SHOULD work and all I did was break that one too, now it doesn't work either!  HELP!  How in the heck does that thin wire go so that it actually moves the points?
