Reply to "Erratic smoke and chuff sounds on Lionmaster PRR T-1 Duplex"

John:  Is the capacitor on that cherry switch important?  I am using the original capacitor  on a new cherry switch.  Also, since the cherry switch has a wire going to the frame of the loco, I assume that the output that goes into the motor board is a ground that momentarily pulses.  .  Am I correct here?  What happens next; I suspect there may be an issue with plugs or loose wires within the motor board or the board directly below it that has lots of connections for couplers, smoke units, etc.  I have not removed these boards yet to check for problems but would this be a good idea?  Phil
