That solved the control issue. I had to turn it quite a bit, maybe 1 or 1.5 full turns, I didn't count. The sound is still just motor revs, no response to commands. I gave it LCRU2 code 1, I don't know if that is correct or affects the Railsounds. I am going to try GRJ's suggestion to pull the chips and reset them. PLCC Puller ordered...
While trying to get the sound to work, I moved the railsounds board slightly in case there was a short. This produced the sound of voices talking, quietly as if not through the speaker. Thought it was the CrewTalk but then the voice announced the callsign to a local AM radio station! Dialed the tuner a bit more to get rid of it.

Yes, but if I go with an ERR upgrade, this loco goes to the back of the queue which is about a half-dozen long already. And it seems since replacing the LCRU didn't fix my issue, I now have an extra one of those to work with.
