My TIU is unable to see any of my locomotives. The red light inside lights up but there seems to be no power from DCS output 1. I tried DCS output 2 and as soon as power is applied the locomotive starts up but the locomotive is still not recognized. Is there anywhere I can send this to have it fixed. I would buy a new one if I can find one.

I know you said channel 2 sent power to the train.  I has similar experience over the weekend.  Turns out I had a loose cable.  Have you tried the following:

  • Disconnect Wi-Fi, aux power from the TIU (Wallwart) and disconnect transformer from main power.  Necessary for TIU reboot.  WiFi will power TIU red led.
  • Reconnect power and check
  • Remove TIU cover and check to see if boards are snug ( I’ve read here that a board, possibly radio pub can loosen).
  • Check fuses while they are accessible.

These steps are simple for operators and have a shot of helping.  It will also help get a head start on diagnosing for you tech.

BTW, if typo, can you edit it so a person down the line does a search to fix a similar problem.  let us know what you find.
