Reply to "Lionel LCRU 1 (6-18221 SD50) .. appears to be dead"

TRW .. thanks, I reviewed the PC board to review if I could see any obvious component failure (ie: diode, resistor, capacitor,etc) and do not see anything, so it probably is the 18-pin prom (Lionel label LCRU 0412) with the LionTech program.

Re-thinking I did have a derailment the last time I ran the train and the SD50 was on the track, powered up, but shut-down via TMCC. The Powermaster did shut the system down, but possibly not fast enough .. just a thought .. I had not started up the SD50 after that last derailment until the other day

I see that that particular LCRU1 is still available from Lionel and I am thinking I will order one that is already programmed with the Liontech software.  Shawn (see note above) mentioned that the Motorola prom (PIC16C84) is available on line from China and I see them, but then the next roadblock is programming it.
