    Jandy LED watercolors not synching

    I installed an identical pair of jandy LED pool lights that run off the same circuit/switch. I just set it to a color sequence and the colors are off sync by about 1/2 a second or more. Any idea on how to get these lights to reset or re-sync? Thanks

    Zodiac/Jandy VS-FLO PRO 2.0 - TWO BROKE (failed)!

    So I went to a variable speed pump a few months ago (pump named in subject). It went out after 3 weeks - looks like the circuit board burnt out as it had visible marks on the circuit board where it looked melted. It was fully replaced under warranty which was great. Now onto pump #2 - same...
