LionChief Troubleshooting (continued)
Problem: The LionChief Remote will not control the locomotive.
Resolution:
First, ensure the remote you are using to control the locomotive is the proper one, mated to that loco-
motive. Reference the road name and road number printed on the remote with the road name and
road number of the locomotive you are trying to control. Second, ensure you have installed three new
Alkaline AAA batteries into the remote and the on/off switch is set to the "on" position.
The red LED at the top of the remote should be on steady when the speed dial is in the top dead center
position.
The LED will begin to blink when the throttle know is turned in either direction, slowly to quickly,
mimicking the speed you set for the locomotive. The sounds in the locomotive should be on when
you attempting to make the train go. If your locomotive will not move, you will need to take both the
wireless LionChief remote and the locomotive and tender to a local Factory Trained Authorized Lionel
Service Station or contact Lionel Customer Service for further assistance.
