Large / Mallet 2-6-6-2 loco
April 29, 2009, 07:00:54 AM
Hi All
I have two of the above logging locos and am having some problems with them.

Both are fitted with Eloksound decoders 3.5 , and been faulty since new

Basically both run fine in DC - however they dont in DCC.

The sound is good on both, its getting them running properly, in that I use Lenz as my system and they will not start running below speed step 5.

Also when I use No 9 button the sound changes to a rattling sound, totally different from the original.

Also when stood and with sound minimal the locos make a continous wirring sound, which even with my poor hearing is easy to spot

Ive heard about chopping out the capacitators - which I am loathed to do, and various other possiblities.

Can anyone on here help with this one please
Graham
