Problems with my BAchman 4-4-0

I bought a new 8 wheeler <30 days ago. It ran fine then. I disassembled it, painted, detailed and reassembled it and it worked fine. Yesterday I did a second tear down to glue some broken pieces and back on and add some more detail. It ran okay, but would seem to drag then pull again, twice I had to bump it to get it moving. Now it will not work at all.

The track is clean. I lubed it per owner’s manual after 15 minutes of testing it out of the box. Testing with power lead directly to the drivers produces nothing.

An inspection under the cover between the drivers the only thing out of order was an extra cover screw stuck to the motor.

The wheel gauge seems to be good as well.

Anyone have any suggestions?

P.S. I’m keeping the locy.

Of the two Bachmanns I’ve taken apart, both have had broken wiring.
Do you have a meter to check the wiring?

Don’t tear it apart 3 times!!! LOL The Regal

Never mind. I fixed it with a little help from Mr. Funk. Bypassed the faulty circuit boards.
