When I apply power to the track the fan unit comes on immediately and the engine background sounds start up as well. The engine does respond to a conventional whistle and horn buttons from the transformer. However it does not move at all. I did make sure to unplug my command base when testing in conventional. Which was also no change to engine behavior. I'm guessing it now needs the RCDR / RADIO RECEIVER board. I thought if this board was bad that it would still run conventional, however I don't know that for sure. Anyone got any ideas for things to try before I order a new receiver board?
Davety, another thing to look at is to make sure that you don’t have any keys sticking on your legacy remote. I was stumped with a situation where everything fired up randomly when I applied track voltage and couldn’t figure it out. After checking with Dean at Lionel, he said to check the boost/brake button for sticking and sure enough, that’s what it was. I cleaned it with a little electronic contact cleaner and it works just like a new one.
Thanks for the suggesting about checking brake/boost, however I'm getting the same results with my CAB1L as I'm getting with my CAB2. Also none of my other command engines are having any trouble.
