Hi,
A while back I bought a Kato UP SD90MAC off of E-Bay.It came with a Digitrax decoder which I finally took out so I could test the engine on my DC track and it's completely dead,no lights,humming or anything.My son had tried to run it while the decoder was still installed so I'm wondering if that could have fried the engine?I would have thought that at worse that would fry the decoder,but I don't know because I know little about DCC.If it is fried is it even repairable?I'm guessing no unless I replace the motor.
Thanks,
Chris
