We need the product # of the locomotive to assist you in diagnosing the problem.  Some early protosound locomotives simply will not respond to the Z-1000.  I searched for previous articles about this but found nothing.  I do not remember if it was early QSI protosound units or what, but the boards simply will not work with Z-1000's.

Maybe John Will or George know more details.

It has to do with the boards not responding to the digital sine wave put out by a reguar MRC and that MTH transformer or any transformer with a PC board and no magnet/ coil inside. 

The locomotive will work fine with any pure AC sine wave transformer which are:

Many postwar Lionel transformers

MRC AC Pure Sine Wave Transformer

Z4000

Right of Way Industries AC transformer
