When I place an MTH PS2 engine on my track #1 or a special Z4K track, the engine starts up and runs normally. All functions work. I can add an engine or find one. When I place the same engine on my track #2, I can not add it (I get a "no engine to add or an engine not found" message if it is not in the remote), if I try to select it and start it up, I get an "engine not on track" message and then the engine goes into conventional mode. All of the engines have BCR's.
I am suspecting a wiring issue of some sort. I think it may be a faulty or non existent ground. I have been troubleshooting for two days now and have been unable to find the problem. I have tried alternative wiring without success. I know I am missing something. This issue is driving me nuts since the engines will operate correctly on two of my three tracks and the Z4k track, so I know the engines are OK.
I have checked out the TIU and all ports are on and it appears to be working correctly. I have even reset it and tried resetting an engine so that does not appear to be the problem. Any thought on what else I can try appreciated.
