Reset on a TMCC locomotive with the Cab2?

The cab 2 should do the reset just fine. FWIW when hitting AUX1 on the old cab 1 the numbers on the cab 1 activate the same features that the cab 2 is displaying when you see icons, so its the "same difference".

I would check the wires that run to the infra red on the loco drawbar. Sometimes they can rub on the trailing wheels under the cab or rub through where they come through the frame opening.

Sam,

  After pressing set, you should hear the horn blow and after 7 and after 4. the horn blowing is acknoledgement that it excepted the programming.

Bill,  the tender idle sounds comes on immediately when power is applied to the track. Last week it would remain silent until I addressed the locomotive as normal. The locomotive responds with flickering lights when I hit the programing numbers but the tender is unresponsive...

A visual inspection from below shows the wires looking normal. What could have happened in transit to cause the connection to be lost if the wiring is still intact?

I've not opened her up yet as I'm not really comfortable doing that. Will if I have to but don't know what to look for beyond an obvious broken wire!

To do a reset, select the ENG, push INFO, AUX.  The keypad becomes numeric to do a reset.

Just tried that and the tender is still not responsive Marty.  Any ideas from here?

Wiggle the wires going to the locomotive's IR sensor on the drawbar.  I've had those come unsoldered.

If this happened after you send it out and it didn't work when it came back, it's likely the person that worked on it didn't plug something back in or broke something internally.

Sam,

   The sounds are starting up in conventional because its not receiving any signal. Put your engine on the track power it up, put your cell on camera and see if you have a faint white dot. If you don't see it you have a problem with the engine IR tether or wiring back to and including  the radio board.

They should have standard screws, usually Phillips.  What "drivers" are you thinking of?

This engine was modified, he had posted earlier on it with pictures. It has Allen head screws.  Not sure what the original owner was thinking.  It was missing other fasteners too.  G

I wonder what the original owner was thinking as well, that's pretty odd!
