I will get this ENI working as an ENI.? Then I'll one day convert it to a LENi when the mood strikes me.? My mandatory COVID work from home policy is over and I have to start going back into the

Re: Leni conversion #3
Don't ever give up on the ENi '700, they can usually be salvaged, or at worst supply unobtainable parts for then next one.Hint: Take of the range selector knob. If it's original is says DAKA-WARE,

Re: Leni conversion #3
Thanks Geo,? ?read all your responses, got it!? ?will check resistances as described. and yes this failed one I have was dunked in something looks like shellac.

That's why this Group exists Michael,Please report your findings back for other to read too.ENi especially used a great many different transformers. They came out a few years later than all the

Re: Leni conversion #3
hi Geo,? ?no I did not check between windings.? ?How does that work..? ? ? pin 2 to 3...? ? ?pin 4 to 5?

Re: Leni conversion #3
I just bought 2 of them.? and now I know how to check them before installing.? ?thanks all.
Re: Leni conversion #3
Ooop! Maybe. Maybe not. Infinity would be bad for sure, did you remember to check between the winding? None of the should have resistance to the other ones.Although I have checked a few recently and

Re: Leni conversion #3
Michael, Lenox is the CDV-700 expert. I recommend buy the transformers too, all of them if you can. (and quick, once this is out they'll be gone in an instant)Thanks, Lenox, for that "inside tip".Very

Hi, Michael, https://www.ebay.com/itm/265620413544?hash=item3dd835dc68:g:QxkAAOSwGExiQczb These appear to be Lionel transformers. However, I once used one in a Victoreen CD V-700 and it worked fine.

*ok, bad transformer. Multimeter continuity check:? ? pins 1-2? 1.826 no beep.? ?pins 3-4 good.? pins 5-6 good. * multimeter resistance checks:? pins 1-2 6.5kohms;? pins 3-4 .005 kohm;? pins
