Reply to "Lionel 6-18006 T1 tether problem?"

I ended having to rewire mine with a 6 pin connector.  To keep the wires neat, at other's suggestion, I have a piece of shrink wrap tubing over the wires, but DO NOT actually shrink apply heat and shrink the tubing.  You want it to stay flexible.  I think I still have the whistle and bell backwards.  The idea of the extra wires was the ability to later add a cutoff switch for the smoke unit back in the tender.  I never got around to it but the capability is now there. 

This failure is pretty common with this engine.
