I sent the loco to fleischmann technical center. the loco was really faulty and they solved any problem in 15 days. great fleischmann!

resuming my story (long story, not enough space to type)

which if the loc is on the track it probarly communicate with your loc decoder that

will turn your sounds on/off and accelerate or brake. If the system sees a different loc with the same adress it'sgetting confused and says "see ya, i'm doing nothing" and the loc is doing nothing. again try different adresses this is only a thought that is running through my head. hope will hear if it's working. greetz

assuming that there are locdecoders in both locs, try to use different adresses for each one of them ( if programmable) for example/o steam engine adress number 1, diesel engine adress number 2. or the factory defaults. i think that you try to use same adress for different type of locs and your digital system will have trouble with that. I think dat the system has special information programmed in it that contains the adress of the loc and which type of loc it is.

I had a problum like that and I never sorted mine out even a Digital Expert had no luck.

Some of my locos reset their own numbers too.

I found it was easier in the end to buy a Lenz set90.

Most upsetting.
