Hi Capt

You need to invest in a multi-meter , if you don't already have one

Test for electrical continuity between the motor brush contacts or terminals (where you solder the Orange and Grey wire to ) and the power pickups from the Track

For steam loco's , after removing all wiring , I sit them on a piece of track , put one lead on the motor brush contact (terminal) and the other on each of the rails in turn , If no electrical continuity (short circuit) then you can solder on the decoder wires without frying chips

Hope this helps

Hi Capt

If you bought the TCS decoders you can send them back for warranty

Page 35 of the manual i have online here far as i can tell .

That should be add 1 to the value of CV29

With most 2 digit Addresses Cv29 will be 6 to change direction make it = 7
