I can. They are actually the same size - just an illusion from the pic. Just disappointing the quality of things today. Plug on left was the one that worked. It wasn't original hayward as I replaced the flow switch about 10 years ago. The two on the right are aftermarket also. Don't have...

So original connector on left that works as a jumper. Two of new ones on right connected to flow switches that don’t work. In an act of desperation, I cut one of the new ones off, twisted the wires together and tried as a jumper. It didn’t work! So I attached old connector to new flow switch...

Yes, My Pentair Legend is 16 years old and still going strong. I've replaved a few parts along the way but they are inexpensive. I also have my PB4-60 on a scrap piece of EVA boat flooring I had left over and it does help with noise. Maury

jumper with old switch plug works every time - light blinks then goes off as it should. I'm at a loss....

ajw22, yes. exactly my problem..... Three flow switches, when installed correctly or compressed by hand, do not make the light blink and go off. The solid red no flow light continues to be illuminated.

Yes, one of the flow switches was the expensive Hayward brand, and yes, the arrows are in the correct direction. The switches also don't activate the flow light even when compressed by hand.

I was thinking the same. I did the alcohol swab in the socket. But three separate flow switches not making good contact but the jumper from the old one does (after it showed no flow with the flow switch attached?) I guess stranger things have happened. Is the ohm range on the tested switches...

At work now Jim. Basic Haywood Aquarite system. T-15 cell. Current system is about 6 years old. Nothings changed with flow switch location, etc. Been fully functional for years. But I can get pics after work.......

Updating this. Three (3) attempts at new flow switches and none trigger flow on panel (installed and closed manually). All three tested and show 0.5-1.4 ohms. Jumper still triggers panel to show flow. DE filter is clean. Cell is also. Strong flow. I'm at a loss. Assume it's something in...

I assume a basic ohm test should suffice? Need to get a new meter…..

Could use some advice here. Haywood aquarite showing no flow. Replaced switch (Amazon aftermarket) and still no flow. Made a jumper from d switch and light blinks and goes off so panel is good. Ordered another flow switch (different brand) and still no flow. This is even if I close the...
