I have a Intermountain GE ES44ACwith an ESU LokSound Decoder. I have it programmed for a 4 digit extended address. Now when I power it up I have no engine sound and if I hit F2 the horn honks and the bell starts up, the bell will continue to ring even if I hit F8 to mute it. If I hit the F1 I get two bell sounds ringing. I have tried to reset the decoder with no luck. Any suggestions or ideas ??? I use Decoder Pro with a Digitrax DB150 and a DCS 50 as a booster, a Soundtrax PTB100 to help program. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Jerry
 


I'm not sure how old the decoder is, but I have had a couple members at my club who have had their Loksound decoders replaced due to issues with the sound function(s) not working correctly.

I myself have a Loksound that was purchased a year ago and certain sound features (engine notching comes to mind immediately) do not work - I will be speaking to the dealer I purchased it from tomorrow at a local show.

As stated above, I would definitely contact the dealer you purchased from and you should be able to get a suitable resolution.
