Replacing the lamps

Y

our Inspection Vehicle is illuminated by four small lamps, Lionel part no. 600-8516-009.
During the course of normal operations, you may find that the lamps require

replacement. Replacement lamps are available from your authorized Lionel Service Center or
from Lionel Service.

We recommend that you disconnect and replace one lamp at a time to avoid
crossing wires.

1. Gently pinch in the cab doors and pull up the body to release the snap-tab retainers from

the frame. Refer to Figure 3.

2. Locate the expired lamp and trace the wires back to the appropriate wire nuts. 

3. Unscrew the wire nuts to free the wires.

4. Remove the expired lamp.

5. Install the replacement and use the wire nuts to connect the wires. To make the proper

connections, the ends of the wires must be stripped back 1/8” to 1/4”.

Only an adult should perform this task. Use a pair of wire strippers. Always use
care when stripping wires.

6. Snap the body back on the frame.
