The problem: (as defined in the service bulletin) "degraded or total loss of transmit DCS signal to the engine giving you Check Track or No Engine On Track error message when adding or running PS2 or PS3 engines."
So, if I have a layout connected to my TIU and I get the error messages specifically listed when I run PS 2 and 3 engines, my TIU needs the mod, right?
I agree with H1000.
H1000 said, "If a TIU is suffering from this problem specifically, MTH should repair it at no cost."
The only concern I have is how/when it gets fixed!
Adrian, What you describe is not a TIU issue, it's a set of really bad switches! That's not "heavy use" that's "heavy abuse." You listed 12 short circuits in 30 minutes! I'm not sure I would expect MTH to add this mod for free, given the beating you're giving your TIU.
On the other hand, I think a TIU that has "degraded or total loss of transmit DCS signal to the engine giving you Check Track or No Engine On Track error message when adding or running PS2 or PS3 engines." should be repaired at MTH's expense.... it's a defective product!
My concern remains... MTH has issued a mod to fix a specific problem, but has not indicated how the affected TIUS will be repaired, under what circumstances, and at whose expense.
