Problem Resolved. Called SaltPoolGuys.com and ordered a complete control unit (DIG-220). Took me about 3 hours to swap it out and get it running. A little more money than I wanted to spend, but its done and I can move on to other things. As a footnote, if you need anything Pool Pilot...

I couldn't agree with you more! Called SaltPoolGuys late Monday afternoon, Josh answered the phone. Explained that I needed a new complete Pool Pilot controller fast since I am leaving on vacation Saturday morning. Josh went the extra mile to get my unit shipped the same day (even though it...

I have a Pentair Rainbow Cyanuric Acid Test Kit #79 (see picture below). I find the larger tube with the sliding dot much easier to use than the one with my TF-100 kit. So, I am needing more reagent for this kit. I am wondering if I can buy R-0013 reagent from TFTestkits for use with the...

I need to buy a new AutoPilot Pool Pilot Digital controller (DIG-220). (The whole story is here: LOW AMPS ON POOL PILOT DIGITAL?) I'm looking for a dealer that: * Sells a good volume of these units * Really KNOWS the Pool Pilot system and has lots of experience installing and...

OK, I replaced the 4 caps on the power board and that went pretty well. I also noticed a cap on the control/display board had a little bulge on the end too. I found that locally and replaced it (a 1000 uf, 16 volt, 105 degrees cap with one rated 1000 uf, 25 volt, 105 degrees), thinking that...

Actually, I use the Pool Pilot as the pump controller, so I don't have an external clock to turn the fan's on/off. On the other hand, that idea would be cheaper than a new control board. Is there still a program by AutoPilot for me to send in the broken controller board and have it repaired...

Yes, both fans work when connected directly to the power board connector as described in my last post. They also don't work when wired thru the control board. All wires and connectors tested good. The only thing left is the control board, so I'm going to pull it out and see if anything...

After review of other AutoPilot capacitor problem posts, I researched the exact 4 bad capacitors my power board had installed. They are Teapo SX series 1,000 uf 50v, rated at 1,000 hours at a max temp of 105 degrees (C). Since heat seems to be the common issue with these caps, I took Sean's...

Sean, The two tests were both taken with the unit in boost mode. I ran my test twice to record exact readings & times. This seems to be the usual behavior at this point: When it starts up I get low amps with low volts and amps. Slowly over the course of an hour or so, both readings increase...

Getting a low amps blinking light on my Digital Pool Pilot (DIG-220) bought and running since June 2006. The unit is configured and tested so far as follows: • Software version 4.2 • Original SC-60 cell with 31,800 amp hours • Power Level 3 • Water has 3,400 PPM salt (verified) @ 84 degrees...

This problem is resolved, but this is more to document it for the next person who may run into this problem. I have a Digital Pool Pilot (DIG-220), Serial # DG0061212124, Software v4.2, a SC-60 cell with 25,700 amp hours on it (unit is at least 5 years old with original cell). Currently I have...
