LGB analogue reverse loop set not working :S

Hi,
since rebuilding my railway earlier this year the reverse loop set has become a bit annoying, only working intermittently, but when I went out to run a train yesterday and again today, its not working at all :wits:
A couple of weeks ago we had the same problem an opened both units up and they were full of water, so after a dry out and a clean they worked perfectly, but when I opened it up yesterday there was no water or dirt in there.
Can anybody advise me how i can find out whats up with them or fix them, or, find an alternative to them :)

Thanks,
Rob
 
Hi Rob.
As it seems to have be giving trouble on more than one occasion I'd be tempted to remove the LGB circuit board from the track with the arrow ( there shouldn't be any electronics in the other track in the set) and replace it with a diode bridge. These are easily and cheaply obtained from any electronic component supplier, get one with a current rating of at least twice that of the largest power supply you are likely to use.
The illustration shows a KPBC2504, rated at 25A 400V suitable for a 10 A supply and available for £2.11. from Maplins; maybe less from alternative suppliers. If you don't wish to solder the connections your supplier will doubtless be able to supply suitable crimp connectors, note the positive is identified by being at 90 degrees to the other three terminals.
