You did not give much of any information.
What brand controller are you using?
Did you try a decoder reset?
Do the lights come on when the loco is on the track?
Put a quarter accross the rails and the DCC controller should trip if the track connections are correct. If it does not trip, then you have a loose wire connection somewhere.
