35K gallon, IG, Vinyl (new liner installed April 2022), Cartridge filter, Whisperflo pump (installed May 2022), pool built 2008, CMP Powerclean Ultra 760 (installed new cell March 2023, new control unit May 2023), pool store test kit, city water. In 2021, circuit board went out & they replaced it (still under warranty); from that point on, I have had issues off & on with this system. The issue is it works fine in positive polarity, but when it switches to negative, the service light comes on & it stops producing chlorine. They have replaced both the control unit & salt cell numerous times, but I continue to have the same issue. But, sometimes, randomly it seems, it will work properly. It actually began working in June of 2022 (after not working the month prior), but still needed a bit of supplemental chlorine. I had received replacement cell & control unit in 2022 (between the time it wasn't working and started working), but I didn't install them because it started working. But, when I installed the ones I was using in 2022 in 2023, the problem returned, so I installed the replacements I received in 2022, but the issue remains. The water temp & salt levels are sufficient. The appropriate valves are open & running properly. We've had an electrician look at it. Doesn't seem to be a power/short issue. In recent days, it will work all day (even when switching to negative polarity), but generally some time in the night, it will kick off again and I have to force it to positive to get it to work. I would call CMP again, but they just keep sending me new units (and I'm guessing at this point I am past warranty, so they may no longer do that). I just have a difficult time believing it would be that many faulty units/cells. I've called around & no one locally will service it. I am about to give up & buy something else, but I have a brand new cell & control unit; I just really hate to do that when I am wondering if it is more something to do with something beyond that. Suggestions?
