Reply to "Tripping ZW Lionel 6-32998 Hobby Shop - Mine is pulling 2 amps/14 volts, can someone measure theirs for comparison?"

I might be giving too much information to digest. Restating my request for help:

Please, can someone measure their amps on the ZW-L gauge with just the Hobby Shop hooked up to their ZW-L?

I measured a reading of slightly more than 2 amps at 14 volts. It has to be too high compared to other structures and lights on my layout.

If it is supposed to be lower, then I start disassembly to disconnect the RR lights and motor from the board looking for a big drop.

I don't want to take it apart if it is normal. I emailed Lionel and phoned requesting the amp draw for this structure. I am still waiting.
