QSI GP9 Upgrade Chip received!

Well, it looks like I have one of two possible problems. <br /> <br />1) a Defective QSI Upgrade Chip <br /> <br />OR <br /> <br />2) My Reed switch is defective or shorted. <br /> <br />As soon as power is applied to the track via DCC, the GP9 reports a verbal RESET. This usually indicates that the magnet is in the correct position on the reed switch and does a full factory reset. <br /> <br />I have inspected the entire install and that does not seem to be the problem. The stock QSI chip can be re-installed and runs fine, so that seems to point to the QSI replacement chip. <br /> <br />I have sent an e-mail to Tony's Train Exchange to see if they know anything. I may put a meter on the reed switch in the morning and try to buzz that out and see if that is the problem. <br /> <br />Chris
