I am having issue with rcmc or?
main issue after running engine for 1-10 minutes all smoke odessey are turned on as long as I do not activate bell- steam whistle- blow down fire rear coupler all is fine but when i do activate one of those features more then a few times I lose all control of it cannot reset stop power off its as if it went into conventional mode and yet using transformer whistle button no response
all I can do is turn main power off I have to wait 1-2 minutes then if I'm lucky power it on and it stays dormant until engine is addressed again any clues as to what I am fighting?
This is a new rcmc from Lionel I applied thermal paste to heat sink all connectors have good connections I have been using a davis transformer so tried using my mth 4000 transformer volts to track set for 18 v I have tried running with only odessey enabled all else turned off and same issue
I know its heat related best guess so can lionel test this rcmc to see if it has a defect as I haven't contacted them yet been trying to see if I could find issue on my own and I am not voltmeter savvy
also can anyone here that's able to make a new antenna with connectors ready to slide into respective ports could use one with 12 inch long wires just asking far as i seen none available from lionel thanks for any thoughts on this
I also tried using my tmcc cab-1 remote get same results as above
