Here are the solder joints on the K1 & K2. Also on one of the capacitors. Could this be the issue? Sorry they’re a little blurry. My phone doesn’t do macro shots very well

Just saw ur reply on 2nd page. you don’t think it’s worth trying to diagnose my existing board?

I had called Hayward tech to see where I could get it tested and they had done the troubleshooting I mentioned before but before spending a bunch of money on a board I went to a pool place nearby they said could test it and went ahead and had it tested. They said they tested it in both...

Spoke to Hayward tech support and they are saying the main board needs to be replaced. That the cell test is a pass or fail test and if I am getting current on one polarity and getting a higher chlorine reading out of the return the cell is working so that pretty much would rule that out. Does...

I will have to see if any pool stores around here have a Hayward cell tester. Maybe I can take it this weekend. I think I threw away the old one which is totally unlike me.

See above answers. Also I switched the polarity again after I finished getting these readings so the cell would run for the 180 min at least. I went back out about 5 min later to take a pic of the cell in case you need any info off that and while out I checked the instant salinity again and it...

I was having issues with my new salt cell not producing. After much help from the knowledgeable folks on this forum I was able to figure out what the diagnostics were and what they meant. I was advised to try switching polarity. When I did that, it clicked and I started getting current to the...

Ok, noticed the instant salinity was staying at -0. I tried resetting that since I had not done that ever before and Now that I had replaced the liner annd new water I figured that needed to be done and it did nothing. so when I changed polarity it clicked after a few seconds and the cell...

I’m not familiar with running the diagnostics in both polarities. What’s the best way to do that? Also not sure I kept the old salt cell. Gonna have to check and see

Tried that. That was the third attempt. I wish that would’ve worked. I was hoping but was met with disappointment.
