my ez command control unit doesnt run anything! first my only dcc loco doesnt run on any setting and my analogs dont run under number 10. when i throttle up on a dc loco on number 10 the engine just makes motor noises but doesnt move. it isnt the loco because when i plug in my normal power supply it works just fine with running smooth. so i dont know what to do!

DCC throttles normally use 0 to run one DC loco, never heard of an E Z throttle using the number 10, but I use a Digitrax throttle, so what do I know. :)
 
I wouldn't fool with your straight-DC locomotives on dcc-powered track.
More trouble than it's worth.
 
It does sound like the E-Z command is faulty. One more thing to try is to plug your DC controller in to the jump-port on the E-Z Command and see if that will control a DC loco that way, and then set the DC controller to stop and try running your DCC locos again. Some of the Bachmann decoders are not compatible with DC running at the same time and don't work unless the DC setting is at stop.
 
The socket in the EZ Command where you can plug in your DC controller as a slave controller.
