More likely a DCS issue and not decoder. Have you reset your DCS52?

snjroy I have a Zephyr and get that problem from time to time. It does not happen often because most of my engines sit on "dead" track when on stand-by (I have blocks on my layout). Someone on this forum said that decoders that are DC enabled can do these unwanted starts. Simon

My best practice is to never enable DC operation (value of 4) when setting a value for CV29.
For that matter, why does anyone want to run DC locomotives on a DCC layout?

Did you check the address? Could you have somehow addressed it with the address of one of the consisted engines? Or, are you sure it's not (still) somehow part of one of the consists?
Hello everyone,
I'm hoping a knowledgable person can help me. I've done a bit of searching on the Internet and haven't quite found an answer to my problem.
I run my layout with a Digitrax Zephyr DCS52. The majority of decoders in my locomotives (3 of 11) are also digitrax mobile decoders.
Lately, I have been having an issue where I'll start locomotives that have been consisted together and another random locomotive not part of the consist will start moving as well. For example, I'll start running my UP trio (9660/322/660) and one locomotive in one of my BNSF pairs (6340/3001) on a spur will start moving and cause a crash.
I've tried resetting decoders, un-consisting and re-consisting, cleaning tracks, and wheels, turning off/turning on, and everything I can think of. I reset decoders and re-consisted last night and got things to work, this morning, same problem.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated!
