I am using LGB switches and the 12010 switch motor and the 12 volt batteries work fine for a long time, I have one battery for each AM-1 with each Am-1 controlling the maximum 4 turnouts each. Works like a charm and the batteries last a long time before needing recharged.
My point in starting this thread was not the operation of the turnout, but only the icon showing the switch position opposite of actual on my HC.
And back to the point of my question, reversing the wires on the AM solved my problem.
