I have a loc with this docoder and it runs in all aspects perfect, BUT when running into the BRAKE-section on Märklin braking the ligths turns OFF and the lights comes ON again when NO BRAKING appeares.

When the loc stands still on the track I can turn the lights ON/OFF with F0 and FOff as useal.

What can be wrong here ?

Ksor,
I have the same decoders but haven't found a problem with the lights.
Could it be the decoder is not compatible with the braking module ?

regards.,
John

I too have other locs with that decoder with NO PROBLEMs !

But maybe the problem is solved !

In this particular loc I re-used the lamps from the original setup with the chassis from the loc as common - maybe it SHOULD be the common from the decoder instead !

But I haven't got the time to try it yet !

Should be ok to try, as long as you isolate the common connection to the lights from the chassis.

Blue is common plus for all decoder functions.
