You can reset it just like a loco decoder by writing value 8 to CV8 on a programming track connected to the elink PROG output.

Check that you do not have any stray strands of wire across any terminals causing a short.

Be aware that all C terminals are connected together inside when you connect point motors, etc.

As i dont quite understand what your mean by writing the value 8 or cv8 to the decoder as i understand that have to contact it to the program track just the cv bit i dont quite understand hopefully you can help me out ?

But once again thank for taking the time to reply to me as i really appreciate it
