Broadway Limited NW2
Posted by Stshooter on Monday, December 29, 2014 6:33 PM

I have a Broadway NW2 that has stopped running, no indication of power anywhere, I am using Lenz for the DCC. Previously this engine was of good service. Not sure what happened, Any suggestions are appreciated.

I'll second the decoder reset suggestion. It happens all the time. And resetting the decoder brings it back to life.

There should be a manual reset button inside the tender. Read the manual.

Sorry. There is no tender with the EMD NW2.

If the reset doesn't solve the proble, contact BLI Customer Service.

They have been of great help for me in the past.
