After start up the sounds work but the headlight doesn't and it won't move. I've been told I need a new circuit board. Well, I tried contacting the MTH Service with many attempts to no avail. So, does anyone know where I can purchase an after market circuit board and do they even exist?

That is PS-3 so make sure the Drawbar is firmly pushed in to the tender. Since tender starts up, it needs connection to engine for the engine lights and smoke and motor function. Can be as simple as poor connection.

If that is not the issue I am an MTH Tech and have repair boards, but it may be as simple as a bad engine harness connection or bad drawbar.

My email in my profile to contact me. G
