TRNLUVR,
Not a spare, would need to borrow one from another engine, and can do so with only removal of shell from a diff engine. May give it a try this evening when I can. Thanks for the idea. I know, this sounds all together from left field, but, it is what occurred. I am wondering what in the MTH electronics that remain may have a "stored memory" of the former PS1 system? If the engine went into conventional mode, as they can do, what (and where) may have a "memory" of the former functions, and produced the sounds and F-N-R-N-F actions?
Beginning to think of removal of the MTH lighting boards. The only lighting I really need them for is the Mars light. All else can be powered from the DC Comm, that is, except for the Mars.
Thanks for the input. I have no doubt about the receiver as the engine responses to the Cab1 after I reset the engine ID and feature #6. It will be more effort to do so, but to try a swap out of the RS board from another engine will give me some answers. Really too bad I don't have "spares" around, seems they all get installed into PS1 or other conventional engines.
