Finally got around to hooking up the ZW-L. Haven’t connected the CAB1 yet. Wanted to test the Lionchief and conventional engines first. Set the rear switch to Conventional. Cranked the power up to 18V on 2 of the loops and the Lionchief engines work fine with their own remote. However the conventional engine has a seizure when power is applied. It literally shakes in its place without moving forward. I think it’s trying to move back forth back forth back forth. When I connected the original transformer to the track, the engine worked fine.
The engine is from the 70s. The ZW-L is hooked up correctly as far as I can tell. When the lever is raised, a conventional engine should start to move and gradually speed up, yes?
Is there something about the ZW-L and conventional engines that I’m missing?
