In the meantime the rest are being shipped out. We should be finished getting them out by the end of the current week. Cheers!

So how do the DHL drivers cope with the bright yellow bonnets glaring back at them as they drive? They probably already have the welding masks on board. 😉🤣 (Siku model image from Siku's own website) 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well spotted it wasn’t, but I had a very good email conversation with Simon on the Accurascale support line this morning and they are sending a spare out once they arrive in stock. Took about 5 minutes with them - really good customer support 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! Fran Fran Just about to order, then checked here and see there are different designs of clips. I assumed all of the large Accurathrash speakers are the same, but the fit onto the board must be different in each model. I have a Class 92 DCC ready on the way to me. I have the sound decoder already. Will I need clips and a speaker for that model as well? Just checked decoder fitting instructions on your web site and it looks as though a speaker is already installed on DCC ready? Also, can I assume the clips will come with the fixing screws?

RMweb Premium LMSfan72 Posted September 4, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 4, 2023 On 02/09/2023 at 13:12, SRman said: And now a minor disaster: 37 026 and 37 423 were both happily circulating on the same track, when another item derailed and shorted the track out momentarily. 37 423 was unscathed, but 37 026 lost its sound even though it wasn't involved in the derailment or short, itself. Lights all work, locomotive moves, but activating the sound gives a click from the speakers and that's it. I have tried resetting the decoder (which now seems to be locked), to no avail, and tried reloading the sound project completely, but so far nothing has improved. I have a couple of other things to try before I write of the decoder and try to get it replaced or repaired under warranty (I believe ESU's warranty is quite good in these matters). Good luck, I wouldn't hold too much hope though. I had the same happen with 37423 - you could here the sound try to start and then nothing. I reblew with a sound file that A/S supplied to try and sort it with but it didn't fix it. I then tried with another sound project and I could clearly hear the start of the sound for maybe 1/2 a second then nothing. The chip ended up going back by itself. I suspect a batch of slightly dodgy decoders where some of the components aren't quite up to spec. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect a batch of slightly dodgy decoders where some of the components aren't quite up to spec. There were reports of such problems with a batch of ESU decoders (not just the LokSounds, either). Whichever way, it was a fault on my layout that caused it rather than an outright decoder fault. If it had a weak component or two, that would have contributed. The decoder came from Buckambool Model Trains in New South Wales, and Jarryd there is usually very helpful: I have emailed him with the details (only last Sunday evening) but haven't heard back yet.Edit - Tuesday 12 hours after I posted this: Jarryd got back to me earlier and said send it back and he'll replace it. As we surmised, it may well have come from the faulty batches. Edited September 5, 2023 by SRman Update 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
