Saving a 2T22

Sun Nov 07, 2021 8:31 am

I have saved a 2T22 siren from the scrapyard and its in bad shape, I believe the old radio just gave out and the park manager felt it was the right time to upgrade to a new battery operated siren a 130 (naturally) will be ordered and installed. I have the 2T22 siren I just need to go get it and I am having 44 horns made, a set is gonna go to Castlewood for their siren, and the other set is for mine. The AR timer is shot which is a shame but I have plans for the (cant spell tonight :lol: ) to be taken apart and the motor re wound the rotor re balanced and the body repainted not all at once I have a budget.

Can anyone here fix a AR timer? It got water logged as stated above and I would like it to work again if anyone knows how to fix one send me an email please or PM directly. Any assistance is welcome
Thank You

Agreeing with Model L on this one, that timer really doesn't look bad. Will it just not work when you put power to it? It may need a wire replaced.

Ok If I followed the diagram properly, Wire one 120 VAC goes to 9 and the other goes to common?

Sounds like you had it wired improperly. The positive and negative ends of the power cable go to terminals 8 and 9.

Oh thank you I got it working now, Thank you very Much MAJOR THUMBS UP
::Edit:: I tested the timer and Test & Cancel do not work, When I press Alert it seems that the attack cam is activated and the attack signal works fine. Other then that its a nice timer
