I purchased a used Spectrum PRR K4 on e-Bay and just received it (its beautiful btw). The problem is, I can't get it to run on my track. I'm use Bachmann's EZ-Command, which has been flawless. The seller said that the short address was 3, but when I tried it, it wouldn't work. I tried all the other addresses as well and none of them would move the loco. I was able to run all my other locos with no problem so it isn't my DCC system. The wiring seems fine, and the connections were snapped tight.
My questions are: 1) Could anyone suggest some things I could do to try to trouble shoot the potential problem? & 2) Since it was purchased used, is the warranty still good?
I contacted the Seller and he said they use NCE equipment and it ran well for them on it. I can't imagine that a Bachmann loco wouldn't run on a Bachmann system but would on another system (I have 7 other bachmann locos that run on my dcc system without difficulty).
The Loco is Item #84101, but it didn't come with any paperwork inside. Is there a way that I can download the paperwork for this item?
