Reply to "has anyone attempted to repair a Lionel CW-40 transformer?"

The Lionel CW-40 & 80 transformers are "not" repairable. LIonel at one point was replacing the 80's with new ones after they failed in the warranty period. You had to cut the cord off before sending it back to Lionel. I suspect they just threw them out in the trash.

 

The most likely part blown is the triac. don't know the part number-- But een if the part was to be replaced, there is probably other damage, likely the microprocesser chip. wish I could be more optomistic---
