Hey all I am having some issues with our SWG Low Salt.

We tested the pools salt and it I within the required specs.

I have viewed some Youtube videos of people who have done the bypass by moving the top Black and White wires and placing them in the screw terminals with the matching colors.

Ran it on Chlorinator for a few minutes and it threw the low salt warning.

We have submerged both probs in vinegar for more than an hour and that also does not seem to help with the error.

Anyone else have another way to bypass the low salt warning?

My pump is model 26675EG ECO15110-2
 
My salt cell has a sensor on the bottom that unscrews. The last time I had issues where the cell was giving a low salt error even when salt level was fine, I unscrewed the sensor and cleaned it with a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol. That cleared up the error and the cell sensors started reading correctly again.

Thanks for the reply Jark.

Are you talking about the connectors that each sensor is connected to or are you references the wires on the screw terminals?

How are you testing the salinity level?
Meters & strips can be off by 500ppm +/-
The k1766 is 200ppm +/-
The intex units are quite picky & have a tight tolerance 2800-2900ppm in my experience. Not much wiggle room
