Arc Air shorting


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, got my 1st track in almost 40 years and am having issues getting the Arc Air up and running. I get everything connected through the app, get lane 1 running, but when I depress the controller for lane 2 the thing shorts. I have shortened the track, moved it onto a clean hard surface and still the same issue. Any ideas??

Did the track work fine without ARC AIR ?

Does it do this with every car? (Cars can cause shorts...)

Double check the track. I once had the thinnest of bits of braid that came off a car cause a short and until I vacuumed the whole track it didn't go away.

Also make sure if you are using crossover track to always use them in pairs...

The only way to be sure is to make sure no other track is attached and that the powerbase looks like it is in good condition.

If it still doesn't work you can open it up by unscrewing the bottom and see if anything is obviously wrong.

Otherwise you will have to send it to Hornby (contact below) for fixing...
