Help needed with slider removal on a 4103 baggage car.

Hello to all, The tail lights on this wagon keep flickering. The slider is in good condition and is making good contact with pukos. I believe that a cleaning of the ground contactor on the axle is in order but I can't figure out how to remove the slider assembly. Can anyone please help? Mikey   |

I am not familiar with that model, but visually, it looks like the slider is clipped in like on most models since the 1980s. If you can open the doors on the side, you may be able to use pliers to compress the pins so that the slider pops out easier. If you suspect that the issue is related to the axle contact, you can try to locate the contact and manipulate it so that it makes more contact with the wheel/axle. The other possibility would be to add a ground contact on the second axle, which would improve overall contact for the model.

Excellent!
Thanks Mike for the info. The German link was the most helpful. I used a pair of curved hemostats and went through the door, pushed down on the pin and it popped out.
