Are there any common reasons why slot cars might not work?
Posted by John on September 26, 2008I just got given a slot car track with the cars that has been used. It looks new. I wouldn't think it has been played with very much. But when I set it up, the cars didn't go. Are there any slot car hobbists that can tell me some reasons it could be? Thank you
1. check with volt meter that voltage is on the track. Could be a bad transformer suppling the track.
2. contacts between car and track dirty.
3. bad joints in the track pieces.
4. dirty/broken motors in the cars.
5. not plugged in.

Dirt or hair on the contacts?
The track is not totally connected?
