Locomotive Light Bulb Replacement
To replace the headlight and cab interior lights on this locomotive, follow these
instructions.
Follow the cab removal instructions in the “Lubrication and Greasing
Instructions” section on pg. 12 of this manual. Once the body has been removed,
follow the instructions below and remove the lights as shown below.
Headlight
The locomotive’s headlight is controlled by a constant voltage circuit in the engine.
The headlight is easy to remove and replace when it burns out. The bulb has a
quick disconnect plug that attaches the bulb harness to a connector terminal.
To replace the headlights mounted to the inside of the shell, slide the spring
contact bracket off of its post (Figure 8a). Gently disconnect the bulb harness
from the connector terminal and remove bulbs through the rear of the headlight
socket. Insert the new bulb harness and reconnect. Replacement bulb harnesses are
available directly from the M.T.H. Parts Department.
Cab Interior Lights
The cab interior lights are also made with a bulb harness that attaches to a quick
disconnect plug. Gently disconnect the bulb harness from the connector, and
remove the bulb. Insert the new bulb harness and reconnect. Replacement bulb
harnesses are available directly from the M.T.H. Parts Department.
