Title: DCC Cross over points
Post by: Derek on February 16, 2011, 11:26:43 PM
I've bought a set of DCC cross-over points, but my problem is that, while the points return to both being straight by DCC control, only one point goes to diverge, while the other one stays straight.

Is there a solution to this, please?

Many thanks, Derek, New Zealand.

Dear Derek,
It's likely a mechanical problem- the throw bar has slipped out of its slot. Remove the bottom and slip it back in.
Have fun!

Thank you for your reply.  I've taken the covers off the bottom of the points, but I can't see anything different from the point that does work and the one that doesn't.

Also, the one that does work in both directions by DCC does not stay put when it is a trailing point - it drifts across.

Is there somewhere in New Zealand I can take it to be looked at?  I bought it brand new through EBay.

Dear Derek,
Your best bet may be to return it to the seller.
I have no information on NZ hobby shops or dealers.
Good luck!
