I have a jandy aqua pure 1400 salt cell. I recently just had the sensor replaced by a pool company because it was saying no flow. They replaced it like two weeks ago and now it’s going back-and-forth from flow to no flow. Pool temperature is like 60°, but it has been cold. Any ideas on what could be going on? I haven’t changed anything with the rate. Pump basket is clean, skimmers are clean, salt cell is clean. Thanks!

Does the pressure on the filter gauge fluctuate as well? If so, could be low water level, stuck skimmer weir, suction leak. Does the light going on and off correspond the to in-floor cleaner valve changing ports? The flow changes quickly as one port closes while just before the other opens flow is restricted.
Water level is good, doors are open. No bubbles in pump basket.
It does seem to correspond with the in floor cleaning system but doesn’t always. Never had this problem before with the previous flow switch. Could it be the angle he left the salt cell at? Air getting trapped in the flow sensor?

What rpms are you running at and have you bumped up the rpm's to see if that did the trick?
Didn’t work! Fixed it. Either turning the breaker on and off or turning the unit so the flow sensor is on the bottom fixed the issue. Thanks!
It looks like the Polaris Booster Pump was recently disconnected and the water bypasses the cell.
At lower flow, this will reduce the flow through the cell.
Is the module on A or B?
Can you show the circuit board?
If the power interface board firmware is 02110A10 or 01220A15, you use program A, otherwise you use program B.

- Look at the label on the CPU for the firmware revision.
- If the power interface board firmware is 02110A10 or 01220A15, you use program A for the trisensor.
- All other firmware uses program B on the trisensor inline module.
