Does anyone have a spare inexpensive 6 pin DCC decoder available to buy please.

It's to replace one in my N Class that has recently failed.

Thank you

I suggest you buy one of these:

A decent quality decoder at a sensible price. Maybe not quite as good as a Zimo but a pretty good second choice.

thanks for the info.

I discovered tonight that the decoder is working fine, seems when I replace the body which is metal it creates the short, so part of the issue solved.
