The current consumption of the vehicles in the terminal loop exceeds 3 A.
à
Reduce the
current consumption.

The connections to the points W1 and W3 have been connected the wrong way. For that
reason the polarity within the terminal loop does not correspond to the actual position of
points.


The connections to the rails differ from the connections diagram. Check the connections

1 to 6 and correct them if necessary.
