Athearn Genesis HO GP18 #704 NICKEL PLATE ATHG30619 DCC READY removed bad decode

Description: This Athearn Genesis I will be a COLLECTOR Edition to your railroad! However, I have NOT FULLY TESTED this 75th Anniversary engine! =========================== UPDATE 11.22.2024 When i activate the Address 704, the engine acknowledges with 4 short buzz in quick succession. You probably understand. The engine LED double stack nose lights? They activate every for seconds after the Config light goes off. i meticulously captured the headlamps! Also captured the TRACK POWER activating as a STROBE. The Decoder has a problem; nothing more, from what i have found. I am highly expectant of the QUALITY and RESPONSIVENESS OF WHAT ATHEARN DELIVERS. ========================= THERE EXISTS A SHORT IN THE WIRING FOR THE DECODER...By the time i tested it, the RETURN WINDOW HAD EXPIRED BY 2 DAYS! THE SELLER AGREED TO ACCEPT THE RETURN. Then, he complained about the vinyl railing being loose. (the railings were that way when i received the engine at purchase!) Note: I am a Caregiver for my wife. Time is in slow motion. Seems like the eBAY Return Window expired September 9th. And, I had opened and tested on 9/11. It was too late to involve eBAY. The seller agreed to receive the engine. Expecting to receive a full refund, he responded with this "Boiler Plate" statement: "IT WAS WORKING JUST FINE, HERE." It turned out to be Harvest Time for him; in more ways than one! I was happy to, eventually, receive back the faulty engine! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Grrrrr This is why i have REDUCED THE PRICE to compensate the issue in hopes for YOU TO FIND THE OFFENDING WIRE AT THE DECODER INSTALL POINT. (lift off access is simple to reach. Just pop the 2" cover off..., ============================= A.I. stuffing: This pre-built locomotive is ready to go and features a co-co wheel configuration. The black color and yellow embellishment trim makes an attractive design by Nickel Plste known throughout parts of the Midwest!
