QUOTE (zmil @ 13 Sep 2008, 10:34) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>That's two faulty decoders in 3 installs
***Curious indeed. Your luck isn't good right now - In well over a thousand installs, I've never seen a decoder faulty out of the packet.... although I've had perhaps a couple of dozen a year back from clients saying "faulty when I installed it".
I did have a customer drop in once with a gloomy face telling me he was P-ed off as he'd installed 5 decoders in the same loco and they were all faulty.... I wouldn't replace them under goof proof unless he gave me the loco to look at, and of course.... once I'd isolated the motor bottom brush clip from the chassis, things were fine
