I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post this question.
I’ve just added a siding to my layout by putting in a switch followed by a straight section of track and then the de-coupling track. The switch continues to work fine. But when I press the decouple button, the magnet does not seem to activate - so the decouple does not occur - instead the train switches from neutral position to either a forward or backward direction. I think I have all the wiring correct - but I’m pretty new to this. (Even if I just put 2 cars on the siding over the decouple track - so that no part of the “train” is on the switch, the magnet doesn’t seem to be doing it’s job.)
Thanks for any help you can provide.
