Lionel #455 Oil Derrick

We are trying to get a 455 oil derrick operating. It was working but the wires needed to be replaced. We seem to have forgotten how the wires were connected. Does anyone have a picture or can send a picture of the wiring to the thermal switch?

Thanks for the schematic and maintenance manual. I believe we have it figured out. Looks like we put the wrong end of the thermal wire to the hot terminal.

All’s well that ends well, right? [:)]

That is a great accessory. I have one on the Ironton AMVETS layot and it functions well!
