1. With the cover plate removed, activate the solenoid.
A click should be heard when the circuit is closed.
2. Check the wires on the solenoid for shorting.
3. Check the terminal block for loose wires.
4. Check the resistance of the solenoid using an
ohmmeter. It should measure approximately 5.7
ohms resistance. A higher resistance may indicate a
poor connection or a burned out solenoid. A lower
resistance may indicate a shorted-out solenoid coil.
5. Check for jamming of the linkage. The tail of the
catch may be caught on the bearing. Activate
solenoid to release.
6. Check the catch for burrs at the bearing or the point.
The point can be worn by the passage of the trip line
bullet. Remove burrs with a fine file.
