Also forgot to mention the motor does not get power.
Does anyone know if this part would work for this engine?
David,
It might indeed be the LCRU, but then again maybe not. I'd hate to buy an expensive electronics assembly and then find out that it wasn't bad to begin with.
If it's an LCRU version 2 then you can try a reset by pushing a button sequence on the Cab remote. That's what I would do first.
With Lionel's new parts website just coming online this week I haven't been able to find your model, so I can't tell whether it's version 1 or version 2.
Do you know which one it is?
Mike
Since it has connectors and not individual pins, it's the LCRU2.
Yes it looks like the LCRU2...do you know how to try the reset?
thanks
i found some instructions to reset, but it did not seem to have any affect.
Did you open it up and make sure the program/run switch is still connected?
From what i can tell those wires are connected.
Thanks for the help all... the new lcru2 fixed issue...
Nice to see a post with details on the resolution of the issue.
