Thanks for the help I got the Bachmann to work Evidently despite looking like it was firmly seated and despite removing it and trying again for some reason good contact wasn't being made --hard to believe but I tried one more time and works well

Check the plug to the back of the loco? Is the decoder seated securely? Did you use the 8 pin harness? Was there disc shaped capacitors in the Bachmann locos? If you put the jumper plug back in does the loco run?

I pray every day I break even, Cause I can really use the money!
I started with nothing and still have most of it left!
I have a 2-8-2 sound powered non DCC BLI
Instructions say swapping any NMRA DCC decoder with make it DCC capable
I have several Bachmann DCC/DC non sound decoders from models I am converting to sound
I swapped the Bachmann into the BLI but it doesn't run in DC mode but did in the Bachmann engines
I have not received my NCE DCC setup yet but can't figure why it wouldn't work in DC
Any ideas why not
