There isn't a great deal of information there, Craig.

You have told us the Tornado works, but the 66 doesn't. So the problem is the 66. It could be one of many things, so start at the beginning.

How old is the loco? If it is fairly new, take it back to where you bought it.

As a new poster, you are limited to (I think) two posts, so don't waste your second one.

If the loco is second hand (E-bay, etc) tell us what you were doing when it stopped working, do the lights still come on, does it make any sounds, did it smoke or get hot, anything and everything that happened will help us to deduct what happened.

I bought it brand new from a model store was running it with the tts chip stopped all of a sudden no it doesn't have a working set of lights as Hornby doesn't fit working lights to their class 66 that's Bachmann doesn't make a sound at all not even a hum suspect it could be a loose wire inside the motor unfortunately I don't have a soldering iron
