A copy of the OpenRails.log would tell us which piece of equipment to look at in search of an answer.

Have you compared the lighting section with an SD40-2 that appears normal in OR? That might reveal the problem.
Look at the radius and angle for the two "spheres of light" -- light section of eng file.
A program like Beyond Compare is excellent for this purpose.

You need to change the sphere of light to match the std. sd402, the radius is way off.Comment

I have that locomotive. There is a problem with the shape file but from your screenshot, it looks like you fixed that. The lighting problem is the way the comments are typed in for the first 11 lights in the engine file - the close bracket ")" is after the comment. For example, the first light is "Type ( 1#Sphere of light)" It should read, "Type ( 1 ) #Sphere of light" So change all 11 of these lines accordingly and that should fix it.Comment
