,recently purchased a lionel diesel fm, and a auction, looks like it has never been run, when I try to program it
it just keeps running at full speed, I just recently set up tmcc after not using it for many years, I have tried just
about everything I can think of, I do get 19v to the track but looks like i'm not getting the signal. thanks
Without telling us what all you have and how you have it wired up were at a lost.
1 make sure its the correct adptor for the tmcc as one that doesn't have a ground prong won't work
2 double check your bateries in the remote ( this wouldn't do that as with no signal you would get noting.)
3 make double sure engine switch is in run not program
4. do you have a powermaster as they look a lot like a command but have 2 wire prongs instead of 1 ( just wondering if you grabed the wrong one) and if its bad it will give straight 19 volts to the track.
Just a few things to check

have you tried reprograming the engine?
Your engines not getting a signal from the command base. Reread your instruction manual and check the engine again to make sure IT IS TMCC equipped.
