I just started running my 2018 Electroliner PS3 for the first time 2 weekends ago. One of the cars was shorted out and I took the set in for service. When i returned it to my tracks it ran great for about 15 minutes. However, when I turned it on later that evening one engine would not work. I isolated that engine and reset it based on the instructions. Still no luck. It starts up normally, all the lights and sounds work normally, but then when I put it in forward it moves about 1 foot and then stops in a sluggish way. In reverse it does the same thing. Any suggestions or ideas here of what is going on? My dealer told me that even though I've never run it, MTH might not cover it under warranty because it's 1 1/2 years old. I paid the small fee to fix the short (it was a wire). I'm concerned an engine redo might be way more costly. I'm using a Z4000 transformer.
