Used PS2 engine added with wrong function soft keys

Try downloading the correct sound file for the engine and installing it.  However, lights stopping working after running for a spell sounds like a malfunction.

Thanks, John, the lights worked until the first time I changed direction.  I'm working now to get windows running on my Mac so I can use the downloader.

So I updated the sound file with the MTH loader, the process went smoothly enough, but the problem still exists. I've done a factory reset on the engine before and after updating the sounds file. It still has odd softkey options showing pantagraph options and the lights still don't function properly. Cab lights and number boards light together but have separate function keys.

Not sure what else to try.

Just a guess, but it sounds like the board was replaced in that locomotive.  Did you actually look to see exactly what board is has?

You downloaded the U50C sound file and it still shows a pantograph function on the softkeys? Did you delete the old address and reloaded the handheld?

Yes, I reset my remote and tiu actually to have no engines.

I didn't look to identify the board when I opened it. Not sure I would know what to look for.

It's odd that the first time I started it the lights all came on until I put the engine in reverse.

Yes, I use the sound file associated with the model number. I also tried the upgraded sound file but got a not-compatible message. I assume that is the PS3 file. they both were listed on the engine page https://mthtrains.com/20-2252-1
