I just finished installing a DC Commander in a Weaver SD40-2.  This is the 10th DC commander that I have installed plus a few ERR dummy boards. 

When I put power to the track the engine hummed and the front headlight (LED) was weakly lit and the back headlight(LED) was bright.  Programed the engine to eng #97, aux1 n to #5 and turned off the power and moved the program switch to run.  When I powered back up had no lights or power from the engine.   Rechecked all the wiring and reset the top board, still no lights or power.  Did I get a bad DC Commander or did I screw up?????

first take a RC4L board from another and see what happens . then if same can you take a board from another engine and see. Wondering even thou you've done this many times could maybe a stray wire from one item be in another hole or touching bare wire to another and maybe causing your problem. 

I have in the past when had a problem completely take it out and redone it making sure each wire is tight together before replacing in the board. 

The other option is have the board checked by sending it back but call and talk to Ken first he may be able to help you over the phone as he has me.
