Just for reference:
A LOC or HELOC account should be treated as a credit card account in Quicken because you can take out money and pay it back and do so repeatedly.
A traditional loan or mortgage, when it reaches $0.00 as balance, is considered paid off and you cannot take out more money.
IMHO, neither LOC, HELOC or mortgage accounts should be connected to the bank for transaction downloading. Track it as a manual (offline) account using a properly defined Scheduled Reminder for recording any payments with splits for principal, interest and escrow. You'll get much better results this way, including a correctly updated account balance.
If you want to see your LOC or HELOC in the Account Bar as Liability instead of mixed in with the Credit Card accounts, go into
