Eeesh...that terminal that connects to the fuse looked a bit worse for wear...🙁
There is a YouTube video that will show step by step how to repair that area, but you'll need a second for parts.

I did think i could use a tna thomas and swap the to on the carriges so disconnect annie wire it up to percy and swap the carrige tops as from what i can see the carriges are mostly the same

I was actually just looking at the repair video Muddy was mentioning. Here is is:

Unfortunatly the coach cannot be saved it seems as if its been set a light at one point, the percy however works but the noises are very faint seems the more power i give to it the louder it becomes mabey the speaker on the engine has blown

Btw it was ebay uk and ebay is very evil because as soon as i have money its staight on there.

Unfortunatly the circuit board is in a complete state so percy may never work if anyone knows somewhere or somthing i can do with him please tell me

Lol...yes as I said earlier, I don't recommend working on these particular models.🙁

If it does end up where you can't fix him, don't throw the train away. Put him in a parts box for possible replacement parts for other non-working trains.

i truly hope you can resurrect this one. i dont know where to get a speaker from... maybe an electronics store?

good luck!!

Would one work from a regular talking engine? I picked up a regular talking Henry once that did not talk any more, and all it needed was one of the wires soldiered back on.

You can get a speaker from electronics stores.

I have one of these. I think there is a part number on the speaker phone. Search that on the internet and you should find something.

You can't just find any speakerphone from electronics and hope it'll work.

If you have another train that you are alright with removing the speakerphone from then I guess you can do that and try.
