  1. Keep on to Hornby kelsh003 it took me a while to get them to send me the part. I had the same issue.I've done a little video/slideshow of the repair https://youtu.be/WAXUOaYvApk?feature=shared See the posts on the Dublo thread
  2. I would think the extra contacts are for locos with the steam generator and lights I've done a little video/slideshow of the repair https://youtu.be/WAXUOaYvApk?feature=shared
  3. thanks mikeparkin65 and APT fan. It's best not to mention the APT that's not good for my blood pressure :-) It didn't seem to be getting any better with running, so I decided to carefully remove the base plate on the locomotive to check the axles. I cleaned them with a cotton bud and Isopropyl alcohol removing a bit of black oil-type stuff and then lubricated sparingly with a gaugemaster oil pan I also did the connecting rods and motion at the same time and replaced the base plate making sure everything was aligned properly. The loco is now running a lot better but not perfect. I'm going to give it a run-in over the weekend and see how it goes. Hopefully, it will get smoother. I have to say this is one of the worst steam locos for running out of the box. I've had
  4. Can you not transfer the unused contacts from the top piece? I haven't tried it yet myself, but going to give it a go. I had the same problem I had had the Loco and tender apart twice, and on the second time, it didn't work. I managed to figure out what was wrong using test leads to the locomotive Contacted Hornby Technical, who said to send a photograph of the part as they didn't seem to know what it was. I haven't heard anything back from them yet. Looking online, I found the part had been available from Peters spares but it was sadly sold out I did a Google search using the part number they had. I managed to get the last one available from the new modeller’s shop. The hardest bit of fitting it is removing the white plug from the crimp connections, so you can pass the wires through the chassis then you have to do the same procedure with the new connector reusing the white plug. The part number is X7955 on the label, it calls it new loco tender connection P2. From the research, I've done these fit the new P2 the Hornby Dublo A4 and the Hornby Dublo Scotsman I don't think the tender side of this connection is very robust or reliable. I think Some could've just been jammed together in the factory and that's why they're failing so quickly. I wouldn't recommend anybody to disconnect them unless they have to. Hope this helps
  5. I'm having trouble with my 92134 it's the second one I've had and like the first, it's not running smoothly. going to give it the weekend running in and see if it improves Does anyone have any tips It's like it is tight and sort of stops and starts when running
  6. On my lokprogramer CV106 reads 0 on my Hornby elite CV106 reads 255 i haven’t tried my NCE power cab yet I’m sure it’s a The DC kits sound as it matches their function sheet
  7. Do the breaking functions work? Here's a list of what I have working ACCURASCALE CLASS 92 ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE ESU lokpilot v5 21 pin copy.docx
  8. Thanks I think I will type something up on the computer for just the non-sound functions That will make more sense to me
  9. Can anyone give me a function list for the accurascale class 92 it's fitted with an ESU lokpilot 5 bought from accurascale pre-programmed I did email accurascale they say that it is the sheet included the loco but that's for the sound-fitted version All I need is a basic function list for the 92 with a Lokpilot 5 Thanks Oliver
  10. thanks, Richy59 I had given up hope of getting 60007. I've just ordered one from Hornby
  11. I've had another look online tonight and managed to work it out by the process of elimination it's a DC kits sound file It's a superb sound file. the only thing I need to do now is adjust the breaking on F5 the active break application CV 179 needs more breaking on the loco.
  12. Can anyone help me I've just picked up a very nice Hornby black Five at a train fair at the weekend and it's fitted with an ESU Loksound decoder. I think it is a Loksound 4 but I don't know whose sound files it has and don't have the instructions with the function list is there a way to find out? The little label on the decoder just says black 5 V1 Thanks Olly
  13. Can you tell us more about the firmware update? Do you just put it on the lokprogramer ? And what does the update give you on the Deltic? Is there updated information on the functions ?
