I am having similar issues with my Peco On30 Electrofrog switches. There are two possible areas of concern: #1 is the paint on the stock rails and the closure rails. Remove the paint there carefully, avoiding to bend the closure rails. #2 those little contact shoes on the closure rails that slide under the stock rails may have been bent while painting. Carefull bent them back , so they align with the stock rails again. Be very careful while doing this. I have spent endless hours tinkering and tweaking the switches to get everything up and running again after ballasting. I am not yet done, performance at 95%, which is not good enough.
