       Problem with my ZW
       By: 70gtvert Date: November 29, 2017, 1:38 pm

       My ZW transformer has an issue, 2 if you count the fact that it
       is on each side. 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?

       It sounds like the whistle rectifier discs are bad.

       Replace them with part #1041-13, available from The Train
       Tender.
