engine is not functioning properly, review the following Troubleshooting Guide to
try to isolate the problem.

• Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids.
• Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface.
• Are enabled in the engine or in the decoder to which the engine connects.
