Is there a special way to connect the switch to the SC-2. I ran 3 wires from the switch to the SC-2. When I apply power to the track using a 180 brick the switch lights up but the switch also buzzes. If I disconnect the switch from the SC-2 the buzz stops and by touching the wires the switch works perfectly.
As soon as I connect it to the SC-2 it buzzes and will not work, it seems to try and switch but it will not engage.
Any help will be appreciated.

I do not have a power pack for the SC-2, on my old layout I had 5 SC-2's and did not have a problem. As a last resort I will try auxiliary power.


On your old layout were you using Fastrack? If not then I think that would be the problem since the Fastrack switches cannot pass enough current, which would likely overload the circuit boards, to run the SC2. That is why the powerpack is required when running Fastrack switches from my knowledge.
