I had issues with the last 3 engines I purchased. My last 3 were all Broadway Limited. One was an RSD-15, one an SW-7, and one an NW-2. I am using a Lenz 100 system, and installed a 20 ohm resistor into one leg of the feed to my program track. The Lenz DCC system does not need an additional booster, as it already produces enough power. The resistors prevent an Error 1 code. The error 1 basically is indicating the system is seeing too little resistance for programming. Since the resistor install, my last 3 engines programmed on the first try.
