Well there's another thing you can do, if it's not too much trouble, reset the decoder to factory defaults, for NCE, this can be done by putting a value of 2 in CV30 (CV30 = 2) . The loco will then run on address 3 (Default ), perhaps that's what happened anyway.
If you have control of it on address 3, all you need to do is to reprogram the address you want, and then possibly the other items you changed (speed curves, lighting effects etc).
Let us know how you get on.
Koos
PS: I see you have tried to reset them before, not sure if you used the same procedure though. In any case , hope you find out what's wrong.
When programming , do the locos emit the usual short buzzes and yerky movements, or do they 'shoot away', which is usually a sign that programming didn't work successfully.
