It has been a wet winter in North Cal and I had not been using the fill line as the rain has been filling pool to the max.
Now that I have reset the fill line valve to come on I noted that it was not working as scheduled. Found that it will not work when I manually press the button either.
The lawn genie 3/4 inch valve will fill pool when I turn it on at valve. Since I lost my voltage meter I just went out and bought a new solenoid and it still will not work. I have traced the wires from solenoid to mother board in the Intellitouch and nothing is damged or disconnected or corroded or rusted. The wires connect to a connector that is plugged into Valve B and that is what the inside control says Valve B is - FILL LINE.
1. Could I be missing a page on the indoor pad that has disabled the function of this? I change no settings but turning off solar options for heating on the touch pad and unplugging th econnection for the solar on the motherboard to safely not run up to the solar when roof plugs are open.
2. Is it likely that the motherboard has crapped out on this circuit only?
3. I do not know what you call the little raised black boxes (transistors?). Do these become faulty and snap out of board and are replaced?
Clearly question 3 indicates that I could be dangerous here
