Reply to ""Request Timed Out", "Error", "Not Working!" MTH DCS WIU"

@Landon Eshbach  Here I go ... activating the thread for 2019 

  1. I too am getting the Request Timed Out message when attempting to add an engine (app was downloaded, so it's current) 
  2. Cannot check signal strength via the App since adding an engine is what gets me "timed out"
  3. The remote is reporting signal strength of "1" throughout. 
  4. After working to replace all of the track power buss underneath, I am now thinking I have a bad TIU channel. 
  5. @Barry Broskowitz suggests several things to me in a private email, which I am grateful for (he'da'man)
  6. Will try routing power through FIXED CHANNEL 2 and see what happens. 
  7. Barry also reminds me that stranded wire is preferred (I used solid copper in the re-wire). 
  8. I did remove all other rolling stock (including TMCC engines) and that did not help. 
  9. @mike g. - yes, wine always helps, but I have to wait for cocktail hour. 
  10. Oh yes, everything is current (6.1 on the TIU and Remote, and 1.1 in the WIU).

(PS: I can never remember: Is BUSS the correct term? :-)
