I recently had an old steam loco upgraded with ERR control and railsounds. Got it home and tried to assign an engine number other than 1 to it, no joy. No sequence of events will allow me to program this loco with an different engine number, but worse yet, the front headlight turned off at some point in this attempt and I cannot figure out how to “re-light” it. The biggest issue, I now have two steam locomotives stuck on engine id 1. The first time this happened I assumed it was a bad program/run switch on the first locomotive but now I’m questioning that. So far I have three locomotives, two steamers that will not allow me to assign a new engine id, and one Kline diesel with TMCC that does allow me to assign a new id to it. This is a legacy controller, version 1.5.2 of the software. Am I missing something here or do I really have two steam locomotives, one recently upgraded, that just won’t accept a program?
