Looking at your pictures I see one issue. You have the DCS Remote Commander, so a lot of the stuff we're talking about for DCS doesn't actually apply to you. Let's try one thing that wasn't mentioned, a factory reset using the DCS Remote Commander. This is a DCS factory reset and not the same as the transformer reset.
Turn off power if on
Wait 15 seconds
Turn on power: the engine should be dark and quiet
Press no other buttons
Press SND
Press DIR
Press "-" (on the gray rocker in the center of the remote. Also is the speed down button.)
The engine will give a two honk response and will be sitting on the track running
The engine has now been factory reset, and is ready to run with your DCS Remote Commander system.
Let's see if that changes it's behavior.
