6990WitherslackHall Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 My Grandad owns a Graham Farish Class 40, 40159, which is sound fitted. He brought from a trader called Modelmania. However, we've got a problem regarding the functions. Our sound chip didn't come with a list of functions so we had to try them all and guess what they were. Here's what we managed to get out of it. These are all correct as of now. This is the official function list of the Class 40. Now, both lists of functions are different and some of the functions don't work (the ones that aren't filled in on our list) plus there's two functions that I'm not sure what they're supposed to be. Can anyone help? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatloaf Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 The official list is what the factory fitted locos are like from new. 40 159 was sold originally as DCC ready so it will have a different sound file to the list you have there If you read CV8 it it will tell you if it has a loksound or zimo decoder. If it returns 151 it is loksound Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Kaput Posted September 15, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 15, 2023 F5 being a brake makes me lean towards legomanbiffo sound (if its actually a Loksound decoder) but the tail lights and cab lights don't match his normal standards. For reference in case it is his - https://www.dckits-devideos.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=221_251_229&product_id=1391 40159 was never available with factory sound so unless someone put the decoder from a factory sound one in it (highly unlikely) you can ignore the factory function list.

We brought the 40 the same day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
6990WitherslackHall Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share Posted September 16, 2023 Ok, so just now, I've gone through all the functions on the 40 using the function list that Kaput gave me yesterday. After testing them all to see which worked and which didn't, I made a new functions list for 40159 and binned the old one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
