@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL I don't see anyone fixing that unless someone buys it from the county and restores it but yeah, there still is that chance.
Problem 1: The choppers brushes are unsteady and molding away Problem 2: The blower is frying itself and knocking around and not giving much pressure to the siren
Gosh that sounds horrible. Looks like it is a brush problem! Also what it does in attack makes me upset too. I don’t like it when it just shuts off everything whenever it winds down. Needs the agastat turned up to about 5-10 seconds. Really needs to be worked on! Also was that smoke at 4:38? If so then looks like the blower is also not doing so hot! Needs either a fix or replacement
@@SNIXC looks like it is no brush problem which is minor and common for big pitch fluctuations. It is the chopper motor itself that is dying and causing the fluctuations
Hey Montecat 33 That Poor Sick Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1003 What Happened It Think It Needs Medicine Also Love Hearing👂Chimes From United Methodist Church
No the brushes inside the siren chopper tube is getting extremely corroded and very old and its making the siren want to lock up the blower apparently actually blew up and now it sounds like a fucking metal grinder
Dude I can feel the thunderbolts pain rn
Oh my God! That poor sweet siren! It would be so nice if it gets the repairs that it needs!
When it switched to attack, it sounded like the blower tried to take off without it there for a second.
Damn that sucks. Knowing places like these they will probably just replace it, but it would be nice if they could fix it.
Holy cow, that 1003 deserves a new motor! It's smoking from the horn, if it keeps up, the blower could short circuit and explode!
4:38 jesus christ that things fucked
This is depressing. Bearings seizing up? Poor thing. I’d love to help the community to help and restore her to her proper glory
Its the brushes that are shot
@@Chevy_Camaroz28 Why weren't these brushless? They would last longer.
@FacePlant federal will have to do more work
They should put new brushes in it
damn bro that’s crazy do some vape tricks tho
Is this a sick thunderbolt 1003?
I don't see that thing living more then a year, if not less.
Unless they fix it it should be fine but if not, it is dead
@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL I don't see anyone fixing that unless someone buys it from the county and restores it but yeah, there still is that chance.
It's still alive but it's literally on its last legs
@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL
Maybe we’ll see a vid of this catching on fire
Blower belts burning up because of the attack timing
T-Bolt Be like:I Quit
Whole Siren Community: NO GET Fixed🥺🥺🥺😭😭
okay
@@auggatronicRoblox_official I Know I Know
@@auggatronicRoblox_official It Sucks (My Comment)
i think my brain imploded on itself trying to read this
It's okay Thunderbolt I fix you
Wow this used to sound healthy now it sounds like poo
It fought the good fight.
Thunderbolt be like:Man...i am not great to make alert noises now...
Bro is this the charloe deathbolt’s kid
AND ITS SMOKING
What siren is in the ambience
4:38 With smoke coming out like that, it wouldn't take long before the Thunderbolt catches on fire.
It's toast...litarally
I saw the smoke. That is really bad.
@@rnbsteenstar Very, it needs to be fixed ASAP before it burns out and start a fire.
@@johndeerefan725 yeah like ASAP!
Good. Don’t fix it. I’ve always wanted to see a tornado siren catch fire while testing.
the rotator on this thunderbolt stops every time it winds down
is this thunderbolt trying to imitate an aca p-50?
Nope. Just an improperly timed AGASTAT delay
@@MidwestSirenProductions oh
That thing is toasted for real.
This thing is gonna turn into silver street but instead of getting refurbished straight to the scrapyard
This boi is probably gonna get replaced in less than a year, if it dosn't go up in flames before then
It's still up SOMEHOW look on the thunderbolt siren map
@@Chevy_Camaroz28 Is it fixed?
@@CycloneJoey518 idk
@@Chevy_Camaroz28 no its very bad
Problem: has trouble starting and blowers keep stopping
Problem 1: The choppers brushes are unsteady and molding away
Problem 2: The blower is frying itself and knocking around and not giving much pressure to the siren
@@sirensofohio5737 for problem 2, it also wouldn't take long before it would start a fire.
@@johndeerefan725 yea that will happen if its blowers rotor grinds against its inner walls
Burned out motor is probably what's causing the smoke
is it possible to adjust the agastat timer?
Yes
jeez this is Lacon 2.0
Could a motor have been smoking? Blower? Chopper? Relay?
OH god, MY CRUSH IS SICK😢😢😢
(Thunderbolt is mah crush but fictional)
That is not a issue with the air getting in
Thats sad😢
4:38
@Xal maybe it does have V8 and we just don’t know it LMAO🤣
The Thunderbolt 1003 in Charloe Ohio sounds like a straight piped truck
That blower sounded cool before the chopper started
Sheesh that thing sounds awful. Such a shame.
What if it did hi lo
What would cause the siren to belch black smoke like that?
The chopper motor's fucked. But the blower is what blew out the smoke. It's REAL hard on it to be turned on and off constantly when it runs attack
The chopper motor is burning

I belive the smoke is from the chopper, and the blower just blew some of it out.
@@United_HVAC_and_Fans its dust

It’s loud as hell
Damn that thing doesn’t sound good
The chopper is partially seized spray some wd40 and see if the does anything
Poor siren
uhh... Is it set on a different chopper level or is the siren really ill?
Edit: I think the blower motor fried, but i believe the head is okay.

@@sirensofohio5737 VERY BIG OOF
One possible way this got very sick is because it has no screen and debris probably got to the internals
@@Chevy_Camaroz28 yea but at the same time its motor has corrosion on the motor that is the only way it can start locking up
@@sirensofohio5737 Anyone recorded it yet?
How is this siren now?
Probably still sick. Maybe even dead.
@@Glist_ this may be another Charloe OH
I bet this will be like the charloe death bolt and it’s chopped will die
This is nothing compared to Charloe
This was painful to listen to
OH PILF (flip reversed)
What happened to the siren it’s smoking
Motor burning out
that good green stuff got caught in the horn and blower
If you listen you can hear the blower crank which is not normal meaning something cracked in the blowers motor
Example: 4:38
It must love marijuana tho
Our smoked for 52 years.
true
It sounds like the blower might need to be replaced with a new blower.
Hopefully ASAP because that's a fire waiting to happen
It's the chopper.
@@Glist_ hopefully the chopper gets replaced before it would lock up and catch on fire.
Looks good at least
I want one.
Go to west shore services
Yeah it’s in allendale, MI
who's fixing that thing bc sound like a Fat oof and do the solenoids work
this siren has gotten worse as of 2/1/23
Somebody's got to do something!
@@rnbsteenstar yep
Yikes!! 😬
I wonder what brand of cigarettes it was smoking. 🚬 Marlboro? 😂
Lol 😂
It’s better to replace it with the same model then let it suffer
its having heart attack save it
poor thing.
4:38 for the people who want to skip and see the smoke yourselves
It likely won't take long before it catches on fire.
Why did they even run it?
Oh my God
Omg 😱 pluse alarm
damn
Wowzer, that’s shitty sounding
4/5
typical c series
It's A series. Check street view.
@@Glist_ there is no physical difference between the two
@@1000BT That's false.
@@1000BT A and C series heads are the same, but C series blowers are different.
