I received a new HO scale Bachmann RS3 for Father's Day.  I am having trouble programming it with my Digitrax DCS 50. I read that to overcome this problem one needs to lay a 1000 ohm resistor across the programming track. My question is: " What watt 1000 ohm resistor should I use?

A 1000 Ohm, ΒΌ Watt resistor laid across the programming track is required for programming  a factory installed non-sound Bachmann (Lenz based) decoder used with a Digitrax Zephyr (DCS50) or Zephyr Xtra (DCS51).

Remove resistor after programming.
