Replacing your powered A-unit’s lamps
Y
our powered A-unit is illuminated by
two 14-volt lamps. One illuminates the
headlamp and the other illuminates the cab
interior. During the course of normal
operations, they may require replacement.
Start by separating the body from the
frame; remove the front screw on the
underside of the frame and lift the body up
slightly, pulling it forward to release the two
rear tabs from the slots in the frame.
Each lamp rests in a holder with its
prongs plugged into a socket. Carefully pull
the bulb straight up out of the holder to
remove it. Replace the expired lamp with
Lionel part no. 610-8049-300, available
from your Lionel authorized Service Center
or Lionel Service. (For more information,
see Lionel Service on page 24.)
Insert the replacement lamp’s prongs into
the socket, making sure that the connection
is tight. To reinstall the shell, first insert the
rear tabs on the body into the slots on the
frame. Line up the screw holes on the frame
and body shell, and reinsert the screw. Make
sure all of the wires are inside the body
before you tighten the screw.
