HO / Wiring Bachmann Smoke Pots in Other Locos
May 18, 2015, 06:23:15 PM
Hello Folks,
During a Bachmann sale, I decided to buy some of their smoke pots.  I knew that the opposite 'horns' were press fit into Bach.'s spilt weight.  So, being an expert lamp wirier, I was ready to go.  Well, it isn't going well.
I pulled a wire here, and another there, and attached one to each post.  Nothing happened.
When I apply leads from a 12volt bulb, the bulb lights.
This is in a Riv Big Boy.  Help.
