I have had the Dig 220 for 2 1/2 years with no problems except re-setting the tri-sensor cord occasinally to clear errors. Now the unit does not cycle on (always off). There are no errors just does not cycle on. Have tried everything, fuses are good, cell and tri-sensor and stainer clean, water chemistry good salt 3,000 ppm, cy 60, ph 7.6, chlorine 2 but have been adding manually since unit not producing. Have checked the programming. The one thing I notice is when I run the test I get 0 volts 5 amps. Any help with this?

If you press boost, wait a minute, and then do a test pool pilot, what volts and amps readings do you get?

That sounds like either a disconnected cell cord or one of the internal fuses has blown.

I turned it off and disconnected the cell cord and re-connected (no change). I have already checked and replaced all 3 fuses.

Press the PUMP button and tell me what the display shows.
If it says REMOTE RUNS PUMP, it somehow got reprogrammed to activate when it gets a signal from an internal control system. It disregards the % setting on the display.
If this is what it shows, go into the INSTALLER MENU, scroll down to SET RELAY. It should be set to EXTERNAL TIMER, ONE SPEED, or TWO SPEED.

Thank you very much, that fixed the problem. Don't know how the program got changed but when I changed it back it worked. This is a very informative forum. Much appreciated.

My controller has reset it's self to french language. The error light is blinking but I cannot get into the installer menu to change the language so I can figure out what is going on. When I press menu and scroll to the installer menu and hold select it keeps going to the maintenance menu. The strange thing is it always shows external timer on top. It had reset it's self last summer to a different setting but was fixed and has worked properly until now. Is there a way to reset this to default settings which should be english or totally reboot.

You would have to contact customer service to walk you though setting it back to English.
