Where do I put the battery for the HIT motorized Thomas train

The only thing left is the motor or the controller. So you isolate the motor and connect it to power. If it turns are full speed, you know it is the controller, if nothing happens it is the controller.

Unscrew the screw under Annie, then pull on the top part of Annie to reveal another section where more batteries go. put water in the hole on top of Thomas, not the funnel, but there's another small hole on the top of Thomas. Now Thomas will puff steam! You are lucky to have found this train, he is super fast and very unique because he puffs the steam! we have one, unfortunately my youngest son broke the chassis that connects Thomas and Annie, so it no longer works properly. You will need a dropper to put the water in Thomas.

2 options.

1.if its the kind that fits on the wooden track look for a screw (philips/star screwdriver) on the underside of Thomas near his face. The body shell should lift off.you will then see the battery.

2 If it's the plastic blue track you have to squeeze the right center wheel and left center wheel. Thomas has 6 wheels so the 2 center/middle wheels, after squeezing this will then make the top portion pop off.

My son wanted this for Christmas but we went with a couple more affordable sets. he did get others though and they dont change batteries like most of the Thomas and friends. Flip him upside down, locate all screws...find one or two that have and arrow around the screw...those are the ones you take out to put the batteries in.

My child has a similar train but it is a Thomas instead of a Percy. There is probably a screw on the bottom. My son's train has three screws and the one in the middle (+) is the one that opens the train so I can put a battery in it.

I brought one a few days ago and out of the box it talked but would not move. I returned it to the store for a replacement. I noticed that the back wheels under the on and off switch have weight on them before the train will move. If the train is not sitting on the track, it will not move, That is what makes thomas stop at the station

Go here for the manual http://www.tomy.co.uk/_download/IZFHDBYX.pdf but all you need to do is squeeze the top while pulling the centre wheels forward. This releases the clip on clamps and the top lifts off. AA battery required.

It might need a new wire connection to the motor.

I cannot promise that this is the problem, but this is where mine was broken, and you may be able to fix yours this way.

I was able to remove the plastic around the tender and access the motor. Using alligator clips, I was able to connect the battery directly to the motor, bypassing the circuit board. The motor functioned, therefore the only component that seemed to be defective was the circuit board, located behind the speaker in the engine unit.

As far as I know, the only place to buy a replacement circuit board is from www.tigerimports.com. Search for part number MEVA0024. Cost is around $15 + shipping (around $6 or so).

I should be receiving this part by the end of the week and will report if it fixed the problem.
