Title: ez command DCC controller stop and #1 button flashing rapidly
Post by: gdrucker1 on January 11, 2015, 02:09:17 PM
Hello folks -
            My son got the Bachmann Easy DCC Command starter kit for christmas. When we plug the command center controller into the track - the number 1 button and the stop button flash rapidly. There is not any power to the train. Any ideas of where I can start to look for a solution? Thank you.

Did you follow the set up instructions exactly as stated in the manual?

Try unplugging the wire that comes from the power suppy from the back of the command center, wait for 2 min and then plug it back in. See if that helps.

Read the manual, this is an indication of a dead short.
