The whistle doesn't work. In fact, it acts the same as the direction function. I've already rundown the wiring and confirmed all is connected and where it should be. I cleaned the contacts, I added a solid state circuit breaker. Everything else works like it should. I'm at a loss. Any ideas? #Post#: 1725-------------------------------------------------- Re: Problem with my ZW By: TrainLarry Date: November 29, 2017, 5:09 pm --------------------------------------------------------- It sounds like the whistle rectifier discs are bad.
