Some of the switches on the layout I bought last year are Atlas Snap switches, which I know are not the best quality.
One of them is giving me a problem where if any locomotives are run through the switch in one direction it causes a short and my DCC controller goes into SVDA mode and had to be reset, the controller is a MRC Prodigy Express. If I run locomotives the other direction they do just fine.
I'm curious if there is a better replacement option? I know #4 turnouts are not the same curve radius, and changing the curve radius in this location on the layout would be a major undertaking.
If not, any suggestions on what I might do to fix the problem on this switch? I can't see any visible problems that might be causing this.
