John - I wasn't able to get them to respond to DC or DCC, so your thought on oxidation may be on the mark. CVs 1, 7, 8, 17, 18, and 29 and more all come up 255. These decoders were installed in early 96 so they don't me anything. The locos were put on the shelf in the basement because they were not the best runners, so maybe its time to shop them for an overhaul.Pete - could have been a static spike some time along the 10 year layoff, but they are handled about the same as the locos that still work. The locos I'm having problems with were conversion #3 4 & 5 of what is now about 200. It would be fun to see them run again but they were $20 locos with $35 decoders. I may find some cheep 2 function decoders and replace them.
There are couple of new Digitrax 2-function decoders selling for a street price of about $17.
Could DN93's be read? Not sure if they had that feature. Maybe same with DZ121's.
