When you try running this on the main track do you have any other locos on the track as well?
The only reason I ask, is that I had some very strange things happen to one of my locos that I fitted a decoder into, it was a TCS M1.
Sometimes it wouldn't respond then it would shoot off, all very strange.
What I found was that two of the decoder on board locos still had all the capacitors left inside them.
I removed every loco off the track and tested the problem one, on its own, all ok!
Started putting the other locos back on and when these two were put back on things went very odd.
Took them apart and hey ho a rake of caps hidden away, removed the lot, which seemed to cure everything.
Long shot but worth a try.
Cheers
