Troubleshooting my SWG - Goldline Aquarite

[Thurston]

Hi all!

My SWG panel has the no flow light on. I bypassed the sensor, turned it back on and:

Flow light flashes for about 50 seconds
Flow light turns off, Generating and check cell lights go on for a few seconds
All lights turn off

The power light light never turns on

I'm thinking I might need to replace the board, but before I go down that route, is there anything else I can try? Cell was just bought this past spring.

I'll lookup what these mean and edit my post to include it.

Probably a bad thermistor.

Thank you both! The thermistor arrived from Amazon in 2 days, I installed it and everything is working great!

The soldering was a total pain, but I my iron is old and was the real problem. With a better soldering iron it would be a lot easier. The legs of the thermistor were too big for the circuit board, but I was able to cut the old one off and leave some of the old legs on the board and soldered the new legs to the old ones. Not ideal, but it looked solid and works great.
