No sound MTH Camelback

That is weird the rear coupler is firing on SU.  Try a Factory Reset with DCS, if that doesn't work try a conventional reset with 1W and 5B?  If that doesn't work you can look for loose plugs in the board.

If none of that works I am an MTH ASC if you don't have anyone local.  E-mail in profile.  G

Battery,

Almost sounds like a short with the rear coupler firing, that's an odd symptom.

In conventional I have not seen a battery keep an engine from starting up.  No motion yes.  Unless the battery is dead shorted.  But then the board would not start at all.  G

I run the locomotive under DCS. I don't know the MTH model number. The locomotive not been used for about 6 months. When I put in on the track it ran for a short time and then quit. Now the locomotive has no steam sounds.

  I've experienced an engine  losing sounds after starting up due to a weak battery. Whether or not this a battery issue I have no idea but.... it's an easy thing to try.

Sound is back. Thanks to everyone who responded. This is what I did:

1. Charge battery for about 3 hours using MTH charger.

2. Tried a conventional reset on a non-DCS track -- no good.

3. Did a factory reset from the DCS remote on a DCS track and sound was restored. Added engine back to remote, turned off smoke and played with trains.

Thanks,

Rick

Good to hear, the conventional reset can be touchy to get right.  If done correctly you get two toots, but sounds have to be functioning.  g
