M.T.H. HO ES44AC PS3E+ Diesel Engine

Start-up Solution
When I apply power to the
track my engine doesn’t do
anything. No lights, no sound,
no nothing.
Check to see if that section of track has
power. Use a voltmeter or a lit passenger
car.
Slide the engine a couple of feet in either
direction, you may have a bad track section
Have you got that section electrically
isolated with a toggle switch or other
device?
Sound Solution
I have no sound from my
engine, but my lights are on
and it moves just fine.
Check the volume pot on your locomotive.
Full CW = Max volume
There’s a crackling sound from
my engine
Check to see if a screw or some other
material hasn’t lodged itself in the underside
of the engine body.
