MTH service Code

jjmmagoojjmmagooOGR Forum Member

Was just a shot in the dark but what does this mean, when I enter the MTH website to check on the servicing of my locomotive it says where the problem is MECH-01.  Does anybody know what that means?  and if you have an Locomotive thats been there since the first week of August and it still says "Not Yet Determined" does that mean they haven t a clue whats wrong with it or does it mean they haven't looked at it yet.  Just curious, not starting a rant or anything.  I know these are delicate machines!

After opening up the box, placing the engine on the track and setting it up on my DCS, I was running the loco fine!  Looked great ran nice.  Of course I am new to DCS so i start scrolling through some of the buttons and then I don't know what I pressed exactly but the locomotive went from 20SMPH to 100 SMPH in less then a 3 seconds.  And next thing you know it ran off the track!  I thought okay lets see what happens when i do it again, the same thing happened and this time ran off the layout.  And it never ran well after that.  So off a trip to Maryland it went!
