Can anyone help me with the 74862 turntable bridge making it a contact track. I have power to the turntable bridge but i can’t seem to make it into a contact track. All my S88s are working but i can't seem to get the contact on the bridge, perhps someone can show me how this is done. The instruction booklet shows me the correct wiring for the contact but mine does not want to work.

Confused

Hello Mark
The 74862 turntable has (underneath):
- 2 screw terminals to connect digital to the turntable and its decoder
- 3 screw terminals to connect each rail and the acting 3rd rail so that you may feed it the way you want

It is self explanatory in the modified Märklin connection plan

Notes:
- this connection gives only one detection zone for the entire bridge
- Of course you know that there is no connection between the turntable and its access rails

Let me know if I misunderstood your question
Cheers
Jean
