I have seen in a number of forums that when a loco lights but does not run to do a decoder reset with a DCC system.
CV8, enter 8 and recycle power.
Procedure I saw in the Bachmann forums also.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
All of the N scale HHP-8s come with DCC inistalled. I don't currently have a voltmeter, but I suppose it's about time to get one.
The N scale section of my website is now uploaded with a lot of various things. Check it out: www.CarlettaTrains.com
I would suggest getting your voltmeter out and trouble shoot.
I am assuming you have a DC only version.
Below is the DCC version.

Split frame contruction. Power is sent to the motor where each motor contact touches the frame halves. I have a couple HO that have the split frame construction.
There should be PC board for the lighting.
Hi Everyone,
I hadn't run my N scale HHP-8 in a while and when I went to run it the other day the directional lights work, but it doesn't run. The layout is DC and all of my other locomotives work, including a second HHP-8. I removed the shell and there are no obvious loose wires or anything out of place. Any ideas? Thank you!
