If this set was purchased second-hand (is what it seems if there was no booklet in the set), are you using the attached MS to make it work?

If the set is not new, chances are either that the MS is not properly setup (swapped MS, digital codes changed) or the locomotive's digital code has been changed so the digital code in the MS and in the locomotive do not match.

If you have one, try to make it work with an analog trafo. If it does, the locomotive has not a mechanical problem.

You can also open the loco and check which digital code has been set on the decoder, and adjust the MS to have the same so you can make it work with the MS.

The loco has a programmable decoder, no need to open it.

Mal239,
Setup the loco from Database. If it doesn't run then change the address.

Tom
