We are going around in circles here. I just tried a WOW V4 in the
train room and id did a full reset every time. Remember the WOW
reset does not reset the speed table.
I Use Decoder Pro now and have done since the first betta WOW in
2014. Follow theses steps WITHOUT any deviation and let me know
what you get.
Place the loco on the Program track, in Decoder Pro now click
IDENTIFY.? after a minute or so your loco will be highlighted.
Click PROGRAM for Program on Program Track and the first page of
details will appear. Next, click on the second TAB - BASIC.
Now the easy bit - at the top of the screen there are four words
- FILE , RESET, WINDOW, HELP. Click on RESET and a box will open
with FACTORY RESET, click the box and another box will open in the
centre of the screen. In this box the top entry which is high
lighted says ENTIRE Decoder (Except speed table) - click on this
and the decoder will be reset.
You are still on the BASIC screen with the original details such
as Loco number - at the bottom of the page is a button READ FULL
PAGE now click this and it will read the first page showing that
the number has now reset to three. Close decoder Pro WITHOUT
saving. You can then open that page, change the number of the loco
and write page with the new number. You can then go through each
page and write them. Only do one page at a time so you can see
what changes are on that page.
Do this without any other operations and let us know how it went.

Thanks Bob,
Good idea!! I tried that and it did not do the nuclear reset.....
I also noticed another thing..........
When I did the normal factory reset DecoderPro comes back with a
308 No Ack from Locomotive error message. This makes good sense to
me.
But, After I tried doing the nuclear reset sequence I got an Ok
message from DecoderPro NOT a 308 error message.
Thanks,
Tim
