I have a Pentair IC40 SWG (8400 gallon pool) and the SWG is 8 years old (only 40% of cell used per diagnostic). The salt reading on easytouch is 7500 PPM. but I did my own test (3,100 ppm) and 3 tests from Leslie’s and all 3 were 3,000 PPM within a 5 day range. For good measure I replaced the flow switch, on SWG as the temperature reading was incorrect at 100% (or 100+ degrees) and the flow switch replacement fixed incorrect temp reading (now at 80% (80 degrees) which is accurate. Problem is that I’m not generating chlorine and the “high salt” (green flashing light) warning is present on SWG. The “cell” light is lit at all times as I dialed up generation to 100%. Flow light is good as well. I should be generating at least 6.7ppm of FC, but my FC level is currently at .60 and was 1.16 yesterday. (Not possible to be using 7.2ppm per day right?) All chemical levels are within range except FC and TC.
