Horizon is not Athearn, call Athearn direct.? They are not listed in Horizon's list of supported brands. Chris

Sam, if I was in your position I'd remove the Athearn board, buy a Decoder Buddy board, and go from there. You can reuse your 21 pin decoder on the Decoder Buddy and it has the proper resistors for

Sam, The way around this is to remove the board and 'hard wire' the decoder. Yes, that's more difficult.? Yes, Athearn should fix the problem by at least sending you a new board.? Replacing the

To all, Since I don’t know the products first hand, I agree with you, if you want to boycott Athearn. If they are going to stick to their warranty policy all is not lost. I would look for a local

Craig, If I make a mistake I admit it and they wouldn't get a email asking them to replace their oversight. I would order a new board and be done with it.

This, to be clear, is crap. What a lousy policy. Craig Zeni Cary NC wrote:

Here is their reply to my email.......I've included the attachment they sent aswell. If the product has aftermarket decoder installed the warranty becomes void. The Horizon Hobby/Athearn warranty is

I'm with you Paul. That's really poor on their part.

Good evening Paul, The issue is with the board and not the sound decoder I got from Soundtraxx. Athearn installed the incorrect resistors leading to very dim lights all around on my brand new

Sam, that just doesn’t sound correct. How is one to know if a decoder is defective or not until it’s installed! Unless the decoder is out of warranty because of time, it should be honored,

So I guess it's all your fault that they put in the wrong resistor? Big business today continues to amaze me. Well, the good news is I can now scratch Athearn off my list of possible new engine

They say 203. Athearn told me because I installed a tsunami2 I voided the warranty.

You have to look at the surface mount resistors; if they say 203 they're 20,000 ohms. They should be 222 or 202. No, I don't know how to reach Athearn for a replacement. Craig Zeni Cary, NC Despatched

Thank you for your reply Craig. If I do have one of the boards with the wrong resistors installed how do I tell? If I do have one of the boards that's wrong would you happen to know how I go about

Some recent Athearn production were made with 20,000 ohm resistors on their lighting board instead of 2,000 ohm. Makes for very dim lights. Athearn is replacing the boards, or buy a Decoder Buddy

DonV and group, No, there's not another question here. Running trains with DC, I left the two reversing blocks Block0 and Block1 (with both ends connected to the east end of other blocks) polarity and

Thank you all for the help with posting to the group! I apologize for the flood of messages I generated. Don Weigt Connecticut

Don Weigt, One of the easiest ways to get something like a track plan to a group like this is to take a picture of it with your phone, email it to your self, then save it to your computer, and finally

Don W... as I said earlier... provide an AR controllers for tracks 0 and 1. Wire everything else to constant polarity to match the mainline. Note that the TT polarity must change when leaning E-bound
