Digitrax System Problems
Ron is struggling with technology and asks DCC pros out there for help:
“I recently purchased a digitrax system and I can’t understand how to get the train to move. I cant believe I am asking this question.’I did read the quick start up, but one time it goes down the test track and I can’t control it other times. It sits there and doesn’t move. I’m not into this modern stuff I guess. I do like my switches and my blocks.”

Did you install the DCC board or DCC module in the loco? If its Atlas and a plug and play board make sure the power contacts are firm. Also make sure the wheels and track are clean. Last of all make sure you have power on the rails. I solder feeder wires to the track about 6 feet apart that come from a 12Guage wire that runs under my layout and connect to the power source.
