Replacing the board looks to have fixed the problem. Now I can work on getting my salt level right. It might be worth replacing the current limiter (a common problem on these boards) and see if it happens to just work? Given the cost of the board, if it turns out to be an easy fix and it's...

Updates: That was some broken black plastic that I saw, not a jumper. I tested the voltages as the Hayward diagnostics doc shows. All voltages and resistance values are within tolerance, so most probably the board. I have a replacement board coming in today. Hopefully I just swap these out...

I have the built in timer set to always on because I control it with a smart outlet instead. I also want to check inside the unit again in the morning. I recall seeing what may be a loose jumper at the bottom of the casing. I don't know what it goes to if that's the case, but if it's supposed to...

I've got a couple more pieces of info to share. I don't know if it's relevant. First, I also notice that while the no flow light is on, the power light is not. I think this is also unexpected behavior, but could there be a power problem that is messing with the board logic? Second, I watched...

Dang. Being an old unit, I'm sure there isn't any warranty associated with it. I guess it depends if the cost and time is worth it vs replacing the board? I assume for the Return Jet unit, you should never get a no flow light since it doesn't have a flow sensor.

Here are pictures of the boards.

I've got an older Aqua Trol system. I used it fine last season. This year when I power it on, I'm getting a power light and the No Flow light. This is the Return Jet (RJ) model, so it isn't supposed to have a flow sensor, so I'm not sure what would send the no flow signal anyway. For what it's...

This does seem like a good way to go. There is a fair amount of farming in my area, though it's not what I'd call rural. I'll check around. Using grain bin panels to a standard pool size and still being able to use a liner seems like a good way to go. Thanks for the idea.

Hello all, So as I'm sure everyone knows, COVID did two things to the pool situation: 1) Limited accessibility to public pools 2) Eliminated the availability of moderately priced Above Ground Pools So I had a concept for building my own steel wall AGP and I wanted to ask if this was feasible...
