When you place a LionChief loco on the track, sounds should start up once power is supplied regardless of a functional controller. If that's not happening, there is probably something wrong with the power supply (less likely) or (more likely) the loco. I suspect you have a defective loco. If it was not purchased from a dealer, you probably have no warranty, but you can ask for a refund, which is what I would do if you cannot get it to respond to the remote or initiate sounds upon power-up.
