My K line switch just quit working.   The Green signal is on constantly.  I can manually go from straight to curved and back again and th green light does not change.  When I try it electrically it will switch from straight to curved but not back to straight thru. It buzzes when a my engine goes thru it in either direction.  I had to place it on my layout as 3 oof my 0-22 are starting to only work part time.

 

Anyone here help?   The local train shop no longer has any parts or a service tech.  (Even for the LIONEL it sells)

Larry,

   OK very good, these SS switches can act funny if they are slightly bent form screwing them down, also check your synthetic pins, make sure nothing is touching where it's not suppose to be, or one of your wires maybe pinched some place, or your

tracks on each side of the switch maybe shorting in some way, and the track may need replaced, also check all your pins and make sure they are in properly making proper contact with the switch. 

Go slow and check carefully.
