Hi Folks

I just purchased an MTH Premiere F3 ABA set 20-2439-1. It has a BCR installed.  The set has very low run time. I tried it on my layout and was able to address the locomotive and start it up with DCS, but it would not move in either direction. Other functions like horn, bell, lights all work via remote. When I turn up the throttle, the lights go out for a moment and then come back on but no movement.  

I tested it in conventional and it runs well in both forward and reverse. I ran it for about 10 minutes then switched back to DCS and again it will not move.

I tried factory reset and that didn’t change things. My other locomotives run fine in DCS so this is not a system issue.


Any ideas on what I can check myself  before sending it off for repair?

Thanks for reading and for your help!!

And Merry Christmas!!!
