I am running DCC command with a 5 amp power booster and when I check my track voltage it is only approx 9 volts. Why not 12?

HO / ACELA NO GO

I have a Acela train with dcc on board,no sound, that has been running perfectly  for 2+ years. All of a sudden it stopped working. I have checked the track with other engines and everything is fine.Before I take it apart,any suggestions as to what to look for?

I have discovered that the 12volt output is not working to the track. There is a switch to change this to 14volt.Has anybody done this for ho track ?
Bachmann does not repair this item, so I am forced to purchase a new one.

I have a 70 ton 3 truck climax that I think could run faster than it does. Is there a way to increase factory speed,and how do you do it?

FYI all of the engines and equipment are Bachmann installed decoders.I don't understand why when you run an engine the turnout switch stops working.

HO / dcc switch
December 16, 2013, 03:21:24 PM
I have a dcc switch running on the ez command system. I have programmed it according to the instructions and it works the first time I turn power on.
That is push #9,then function,then I use #3 to switch it.After I run any other engine on another 3(2or4etc) then come back to switch it,it doesn't work.

Help

I'm using the ez command system. I went in and followed those directions .When I finished programing the switch cycled  4 times telling me it was programed successfully. Now,how is the switch supposed to toggle back and forth.I thought you pushed the forward and reverse arrows to toggle it ---nothing

Yes,the both are,but are located in different locations on the layout.I have a 5amp power booster that I thought would alleviate the problem.
