Removed black tape from top of decoder.  Left it on bottom to prevent shorts.  Is the king pin tab the metal one or the tabs on the gearbox? And I did in-fact do a google search, and your thread didnt pop up in the top ten responses.    I also did a google search for Kapton tape.  It looks a lot like the brittle cracked stuff i pulled out another old locomotive, dont remember what it was or how old.  Does Kapton tape dry out over time?
