And, with absolutely no intent on being a wiseacre, do you know your 9V battery is good? I hope you don't say you did the "9V battery tongue test"! Google it for a good chuckle...
Hi Stan. Yes that is brown black red resistor. I think that's 1k. The battery was new out of the box and I checked the voltage with our meter so it was good. And yeah I've done "tongue tests" in my more stupid younger years.... ;-)
SO I'm thinking some sort of relay connected to the switch of the turnout.....?
