I have the Davenport, has 4 wheels with 4 pickups that touch the wheels. I have noticed that these don't all touch the wheels at all times. The 4 pickups each have a roller that has spring tension behind it to keep contact with the corresponding wheel. They don't. Only 2 of them do and the other 2 sometimes.
My question is do these pickups (all 4 of them) need to contact the wheels at all times?
Maybe this is the reason I am having problems with the loco needing a push.
I have not bypassed the PCB, as for testing purposes yet. I will need to make a jumper to fit the terminals
properly.
I have inspected all wiring and just not sure about the pickups. I would think they all 4 need to contact the wheels at all times.
