Just installed the new wifi module on my layout.  Added all engines one at a time.  Reads all engines on Fixed 1, Var.1, Var.2, but as soon as I plug in Fixed 2, it does not read anything, and engines stay in inactive list.  Fixed 1 controls one loop on lower lever, 1 engine on the track.  Variable 1 -  1/2 of the very top loop of track, 2 engines on the track.  Variable 2 - Middle loop of track, 3 engines on track.  Fixed 2 Controls the Engine terminal, and passenger terminal, right now has 7 engines on the track, but could have more.  Thoughts on this issue.

Buddy, I just wanted to make sure that the TIU is powered---the internal LED is lit.

FYI, right now I am using 2 original issue Rev Gs with the wifi, so age is not a factor.  I assume everything works ok with the remote???

Try powering up FIXED 2 with the wifi turned off, and then turn on the wifi.

I've just started playing with the wifi, so I'm really just stabbing in the dark.

maybe switch the tiu  outputs to different channels and see if the problem changes, that might see something, maybe a track wiring issue, it's worth a try anyway! try to just use  fixed 2 with dcs turned on and off and see what happens . sometimes you have to experiment with things to determine the cause. power up only the aux port for fixed one and the try to use fixed 2 and see if anything changes, if nothing else you may prove or disprove  the fixed 2 channel is working or not?
