Legacy Engine Woes--3 Differnt Problems

OK, I tried to run my Legacy Scale Mike (MoPac 1310, #6-11284) today for the first time in several months.  When last parked in the engine house, the engine ran fine, smoked up a storm, and sounded great on my TMCC system.

Today, the smoke unit is not working, the sounds cut out, and it keeps climbing off the track at one point. 

Specifics:

  • The engine will start OK, but the sound will often cut out at some point in the run.
  • The cab light is blinking repeatedly in three blinks.
  • The smoke unit is not smoking or blowing.
  • At one point--on straight track--the front drivers hop the rail to the right.  No other engine or car exhibits similar misbehavior, and this one didn't do so the last time it ran.

 

I don't have the manual on this engine, and I don't have Legacy, just TMCC.  I guess the 3 blinks means something, but I don't know what.

I'd appreciate any information/hints/ideas anyone can provide.

Thanks!
