My friend has a problem with Fastrak switches, and he asked me to post this.

He has a house cat that got up on the layout and played with the coloured light cover on the switch and of course the cover went flying onto the floor.

He reattached the cover on the LED light and now the LED light does not work.  The switch still works but no light to see what direction the switch is in.

There are Lionel remote legecy switches that you can control from your remote,  now here is a puzzle, he has 3 of these switches at the back of the layout and now all three switches don.t light up, but still switch.  You can't tell if the switch is open or closed because of no lights on the switches are working.

We are all scratching our heads on this one.   Any thoughts on this problem, and please no cat jokes.   Thanks.

Known issue, LEDs might be blown.

See a trend below? That's a fraction of the number of topics that mention this failure.
