Insert these wires into the two pin plug that came with your DCC Twin (Figure 4). Figure 3 Tighten the screws so that they are snug. Not too tight, just snug.

NCE DCC Twin Troubleshooting The NCE DCC Twin is designed and built to NMRA Standards and Recommended Practices. Even at that, when we run trains, sometimes we forget something that can affect the operation of a product. Following is a list of troubleshooting items. My locomotive doesn’t run! Is the DCC Twin plugged in? Is the red LED ON? Does the locomotive have a DCC decoder installed? Go through the set up procedure for Throttle A one more time.
