I just notice something funny. I've switched to Mot.Format II (from I)lately. Everything is going fine. Except my BR41(3792) is reversed. ie. When the 6021 arrow shows forward, it's going backward, and so are the lights. I am very sure it wasn't like this before. Could it be the new format that matters? I know this loco got a 6090 decoder, which is not 60902. Yet my other steamer w delta is ok. All my other locos are of UHL or LP2 or 60902 which has no problem.

Any idea ?

Thanks

Eric

Just tilt the loco so the slider shoe doesn`t contact the center studs, then reverse the direction of the arrows and rerail your loco.

The old format did not know an absolute direction command, just a change direction command.

From time to time, with bad track contact, you will see the running
direction of the loco and the arrows in a mismatch. Then just repeat the above procedure.

Regards,
Manfred

Thanks again.
