Due to some inquiries regarding the electrical wiring of the Tomy Racing cockpit, I sat down and drew out the wiring. There are apparently many contemporaries who still find toys from the 80s in their basements, attics, etc. and repair them again. With the Tomy Cockpit it happens again and again that the thin wires break off when they are dismantled or the soldered joints no longer hold, often forgotten cells in the battery compartment have dissolved and the contacts and soldered joints are corroded as a result.<\/p>\n

I show a sketch of the wiring in the following figure.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>By the way, I only use two 1.5V cells, since the parallel connection of two cells each in the battery compartment is nonsense, as the cells are guaranteed to have different internal resistances and thus comfortably discharge each other even when they are not used.<\/p>\n

In order to be able to identify the components shown in the sketch in the racing cockpit, I also took photos of them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This is the back of the „switch“ that represents the cockpit’s ignition lock and with which the system is switched on.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I called this part „breaker“ because it is a normally closed contact that is triggered by a small „gearwheel“ and causes the drum lighting to flash. That happens when you leave the „street“.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>These are the connections of the battery box. I doubt whether the colors of the wires are the same for all versions. Because in the devices that I have since revived, different wire colors were installed.<\/p>\n

With this information it should now be a little easier to recreate the broken wires and solder joints.<\/p>\n
