morairamike Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I assume that this occurred when you put the link is, If so it looks like you shorted the DCC output. REmove the link.. Unplug the mains and then wait a few seconds and put the plug back in. Now you may foin dthat the address of the Tornado has reverted to 03, this often happens when a short occurs. If it was already 03 then obviously something else it at fault. Do you have another loco that you can run to see if the DCC controller is OK?

Chrissaf Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Did the short circuit coincide with fitting the R8201 link wires. If it did, then you need to reverse the wires to ONE of the two R8201 track connector clips..Why, is explained on page 15 of my downloadable document - download link is located at the top of the 'General Section' in locked sticky post titled "Getting Started with Track Extension Packs"..Note that page 15 relates to a DC layout. The R8201 link wire is not required on a DCC layout providing you fit digital point clips (R8232) to the Hornby points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
