No LED front light control

Mark & Randy,

Thanks for the information as you two confirmed the problem I suspected.

I changed the function output of that decoder as per your information and everything works as I want.

This site is just plain AWESOME when you need/want answers!

Thanks a bunch

 Yup, stuck on = blown function 'output'. The surge when it blew the LED without a resistor is usually enough to blow out the transistor on the function as well.

Thinking that function was the problem so will use one of the other functions to the light when I get to it tomorrow.

Thanks,

That's usually an indicator of a damaged function output.

If you have any remaining function outputs available, connect the front light to it and re-map it to be the headlight.

I installed a NCE P2K-SR decoder in a RS-27 Proto 2000 locomotive a month ago and when I installed it I made the mistake of not installing resistors to the LED's with the locomotive and I burnt out the LED's. 
I installed a pair of LED's today with resistors and the lights work but I have a problem with the front light and that I cannot turn it off. It stays on all the time regardless of direction, turning light off/on with my NCE throttle.
I use Decoder Pro and reset the decoder to factory default, put on the track and the front light never turns off. I configured the decoder lights to how I like to run them and still nothing changes. The rear light works just as it is suppose to but not the front.

Any thoughts why I cannot get the front light to work properly?

Thinking I have a damaged function 1 of my decoder but not sure.

Thanks,

Barry
