Factor analysis models get pretty involved. There was a thread a few days ago with someone setting one up: Help with factor analysis (latent variable model) . It sounds like everything got worked out, and the code is pretty clean and well commented, so I’d recommend you have a look there and see if it gives you some clues on how to goo about building your model.
