Problems With Digitrax Shorting Out

Paul operates an HO layout and is having a problem with his Digitrax shorting out. If you have experienced the same problem you might like to tell Paul how you fixed the problem.

“I recently installed a Peco (power routing switch). When I go from my main line onto a track that is gaped and has a Digitrax AR-1 installed my system shorts out. Does this switch need to be totally isolated in order for the AR-1 to work properly? I have also adjusted the trip switch and this did not seem to make a difference.”
