General Discussion / warranty
February 05, 2012, 06:12:40 PM
this is for the Bachmann,
i got a sorta answer from Jerrys Ho that did not address my question.
here goes, when one buys a new bachmann product, we fill out a warranty card that has the price paid, the vender, the item number and the date bought.
IS THIS CARD NOT KEPT ON FILE???
why then do we have to keep and send in the itemized receipt if we have a warranty problem??









i do not send the card back threw the mail with my personal info for everyone to see so i put the card in an envelope at 44 cents each.
this does not sound like much untill one figures 44 cents times ever how many items purchased, it adds up quickly.
if my warranty cards are discarded then please tell me so, then i can save postage and keep a file for my receipts.
please help me understand.
Willis.

On30 / 2 truck shay
February 03, 2011, 06:03:37 PM
hi all,
i just bought a new 2 truck shay.( well the catalog offer says 2007)
when i opened the package the front truck driveshaft was disconnected.
i took the truck off and reinserted the shaft, no matter how i align the shaft the truck binds when the shaft collapses and it will not pivot all the way compared to fully extended.
it turns sharper to the left than the to the right.
it sticks like it is bottoming out. i hope this makes sense.
the rear truck pivots fine both ways.
thanks, Willis.

Large / firebox pc board
June 22, 2010, 04:05:42 PM
mr Jack, i fried the leds on the firebox flicker board on the 120.5 logging loco.
i contacted parts to order, 2 different pages that came with the loco on page #G828x-IS006 shows part#G811x#PCBO3a, the other page  G828x-IS007 shows part#G811x#PCB01.
the lady in parts is telling me that the pcbo3a is in the gearbox ass. and that the #PCBO1 which is the same # as the main board???????  this is a pc board with 4 wires that plugs into the main board.
when you look up the main board, all it comes with is the main board and the PCBO4.
the lady was very nice, but trying to get her to understand what i was trying get across to her, and her not knowing why there is 2 part numbers for the same board on the 2 different pages.
to keep from loosing my cool, i just hung up and will try to get help here, HOPEFULLY.
thanks, willis.

March 11, 2010, 07:41:05 PM
hi, i just bought this loco, i am installing or trying to put in a QSI G/O decoder.
the engine has 2 chuff optical sensors, the engine board has a 2 screw connector that says chuff input + and- the QSI board has chuff/cam out with 3 pin connector ground-1, cam-2, and +5-3. it shows make and break 1 and 2. how can that be done?
also the engine board has 2 speaker wires coming out of it to hook to the speaker but the QSI also has speaker out connector. (scratching my head on these 2 issues).
please help, someone, anyone!
thanks, willis.
