Williams by Bachmann / powering up a dummy unit
June 08, 2014, 05:45:27 PM
I bought the kit to power up a W by b dummy A unit. Followed the instructions to the T. Tested it by itself and worked great. Put it together with the factory powered A unit and they pull against each other. Put it with another Powered A unit, Same thing. They fight each other. But again by itself it goes the correct direction. I am very frustrated to say the least. Any help is greatly appreciated. But please email Fred directly at darlenewu@cox.net. Thank you. :'( :'( :'(
