Reply to "1996 FP45 Stuck in RESET - 3 Coupler arm sounds then 2 Bells... SCRAMBLED??"

Read here for more information.  Because you can enter reset and program the engine but it doesn't go means it's in deselect.  The reset kit you have coming is only for the 3 clanks of death and will not help you in deselect mode.  I have had both of these faults on PS-1 locomotives.  Which the 3 clanks of death you will get no sound after they sound.  As you read through the thread I linked here, GGG states a way you could try clearing the issue with a chip from a PS-1 locomotive that isn't on the deselect list, but the simplest and best fix is to just order a new chip from MTH as it will ignore the deselect state.
