I have a leak in my pool that I'd like to DIY repair. In the past I've used the product below. Epoxybond Pool Putty 2-Part Set | Swimming Pool & Spa Repair | Easy DIY | Fix Cracks Leaks Underwater or Above | Concrete, Fiberglass & Variety of Other Surfaces | by Atlas Minerals...

Here are some pictures of the inside. I can't find anything that is causing the rust from the inside. I think it's just from morning exterior moisture for 15 years as everything rusts in Florida. Is there anywhere I can buy just the metal box or do I have to buy the entire control box? The...

It's happening on all 4 corners. Its been slowly getting worse over the years and I just presumed it was from the humidity in Florida. Everything rusts outside here eventually. The box is 15 years old and was installed before I owned the home. I'm assuming it's grounded properly. There's no...

My Pentair Control Box is rusting. I'm in Florida. Is there a way to repair this or slow the progression? Is there a place I can buy just the exterior box? Everything on the inside is working fine. Thanks.

I saw this was a common problem and replaced both micro switches. Unfortunately that didn't fix the problem. I'm assuming the new ones from Amazon are good.

I did the cam/switch test. When I touched the connectors together the actuator moves. When I separate them it stops. Then when I touch them again it either keeps going in the same direction or it reverses. This is the random part I can't figure out. I believe it's always supposed to reverse...

Thanks for all the replies! The actuator always stops on each side. When it starts to move again, it randomly goes either direction. Usually it goes the opposite way but other times it keeps going the way it was the last time it moved. I'll take the box off the actuator today and look at it...
