    Jandy touch or Touchlink vs a tablet

    First, the Ei can be connected to your Aqualink RS board. You have at least revision R if you're running iAqualink. You need revision K or newer for direct communication. You do not need anything else at this point. If you still want a wall-mounted controller, I'd recommend the One Touch. It's...

    Problems with Jandy Aquapure 1400

    Cell needs to be replaced. Save yourself some money and go with PLC1400. Use the new sensor you'll get with that kit and cut the cable of your existing sensor and use it as part of your plumbing.

    Aqualink RS4 Feeze Protection

    Your system isn't capable of it. You can try a Clear Memory to wipe out any programming issues, but if the issue persists your board should be replaced.

    Aqualink RS4 Feeze Protection

    1. Is this only happening when freeze protect turns on? 2. Is the maintain temperature feature (only available on recent revisions) on? If you answered yes to #1 and no to #2, you simply have a bad board. When freeze protect its activated the filter pump will turn on and run for a minimum of...

    Jandy 2440 issue

    This is typically a damaged micro-switch. Rarely, both wires to the mucho-switch shorted together our the cam can be spinning on the output shaft. You're right to simply replace the actuator at it's age. The 2444 JVA will directly replace your current one. The part number for it is 4424. And...

    Pool Heater small expolsion during heat cycle

    Of course gas valves fail. That shouldn't have been taken so literally. Note: While the LXi has a sealed combustion chamber, it still has a fuseable link in the safety circuit. I have a picture and wiring diagram that will show this but they're too large of fill files to upload here.

    Aqualink RS not maintaining spa temperature

    Which model heater? Do you know if it's wired through the firemans switch or 4-pin? Do you have the pump on continuously, or do you have this set through the maintain temperature feature on the Aqualink RS? If you have it on maintain temp, how often do you have the RS system checking the...

    teledyne laars spa heater barely heating

    Bad temp sensor, failing ignition control or excessive water flow through the heater. A temp rise should be done along with ohm'ing out the temp sensor. There are 2 in-line fuses in the safety circuit - the 2A fuse that protects the transformer in the event of a short, and the fuseable link...

    Pool Heater small expolsion during heat cycle

    The "explosion" you're hearing is rollout. It's caused by accumulated gas in the combustion chamber. Once this is lit, you'll hear the "explosion" you're referring to. This is a problem, but not as big a problem as you might imagine. The fact that the heater is still turning on is telling. The...

    Polaris 480 Will Not Move

    1. Check your water flow (pump on, booster pump on, clean filter, clean skimmer basket, clean pump basket, valves in correct position, etc.). 2. Check the in-line strainer in the floating hose. 3. Debris may be stuck inside the cleaner's WMS (water management system). This occurs when debris...

    Jandy Laars LT400N Pool heater ignitor replacement

    Good thing they're inexpensive. Check continuity on the ground wire. If the flame sensor is in a good flame and the ground wire is in good condition and properly grounded, jump out the pressure switch and see if it helps any. It may sound crazy, but I've seen "rapidly firing" pressure switches...

    Jandy aquapure 1400

    Is this wired to the pump relay? Any irregular activity with the pump, especially during the time of this issue? What is your current salinity level according to a water test?

    Jandy Aquapure wont connect to Jandy Aqualink

    There is a wire from the Aquapure PIB to the Aqualink RS system. This needs to be connected to the Aqualink RS board for it to communicate. Check that wire for a loose connection or damage.

    Jandy Aquapure 1400

    Glad it's working again for you. When the board goes out, you'll need to replace the plastic box with a metal box. Part number APUREM. This comes with everything you'll need, and is compatible with your current cell/sensor/DC cable.

    Jandy iaqualink for PDA

    You heard correct, at least for the time being. iAqualink currently only runs on an Aqualink RS system. If you have a PDA system, you need to upgrade to Aqualink RS, then purchase iAqualink. IQ900-RS kills 2 birds with one stone. If your Aqualink RS board or chip is Rev C-MMM, you need a new...

    Aquapure SWG "general fault" code 120 can I still run filter

    Re: Aquapure SWG "general fault" code 120 can I still run fi 144 is low salt. 145 is high salt. Your salt level is likely just fine. The reason he may have told you to add more salt is the chlorinator draws a higher current specifically due to the salt level. When a cell is nearing the end of...

    Great White vs. Barracuda MX8

    When you run the MX8 with the designed flow rate, it's the best on the market. Run the cleaner with too much suction, you'll wear down and break the gears on the cleaner. Zodiac has a 2nd gen MX8 that is re-designed and the gears are more-forgiving, but they still recommend running the cleaner...

    Jandy Aquapure 1400

    170 means you're getting low incoming voltage to the board. This is typically caused by a failing transformer or the board may have failed itself. Someone above mentioned that the sensor may be the cause, and they are correct. Disconnect the flow sensor from the power interface board. Turn your...

    Is it OK for the SWG to be on without water flow?

    If you run the SWCG without water flow, the process of electrolysis (or lack thereof) will produce hydrogen gases which will build up and cause the cell to explode. While the flow sensor is installed to turn the cell off without water flow (technically, it's installed to turn the cell on with...

    What would cause Polaris 280 to do this? (video)

    The thrust jet is located on the back of the cleaner. It is responsible for the random path of the cleaner. The higher the position the thrust jet is in, the more climbing it will do. The lower it is, the less climbing it will do. 11 o'clock is the factory setting for your Polaris 280. It is not...

    Dixit - You said you were using extra wires from your inside LCD for 2 and 3. Where are these extra wires coming from? There are only 4 wires tied to the RS485 connector which connects the All Button PCB to the Aqualink RS board...You said you checked voltage between 1 and 4 - does that mean...
