And the thread still keeps giving. Just used the above instructions to sync my remote.

Well, both pumps showed up today so I went ahead and swapped out the pump and salt cell. Cell lights up and the pump runs fine. My easy touch remote doesn’t seem to want to connect reliably, and when it does I can’t seem to get into all the menu options. Running the pump and cell full time for a...

Thanks Jim, I actually have two scheduled for delivery. I've ordered 3 or 4 that showed in stock, only to have them charge my card and then cancel my order 2-3 days later and hold onto my $$ for another 3-4 days. Amazon showed a vendor with 12 in stock and they *tend* to be pretty accurate...

Thanks @ajw22 , I see that the connector count and grouping is the same, it's just the molex connectors are different. I can probably sort that out too if necessary. Also, fwiw, I've been on hold with Pentair for 34 minutes now, but my conversation with them earlier indicated that testing the...

Still debugging this one. I've managed to have a pool pump order cancelled by no less than 4 vendors (allow you to order, but then cancel or back order you). And now it seems I actually have two on schedule for delivery and will have to return one. But to the current unknown... I still think...

Correct, my breaker doesn't trip with the loaner IC, but to the best of my skills the surge card is only putting out 27V which I gather is not correct. Since I haven’t been able to find one of those in stock, I’ll hold off for a little bit anyways. I can always use shock and chlorine to get me...

Alrighty gentlemen… back at it today. Apparently the pump I have is on back order until June from most sites I talked to today. I did find one that had just received a shipment so I ordered it. And a salt cell. No luck on the board, everyone is out. The pump is literally only 14 months old. I...

Ugh…. Is that something I can troubleshoot myself? I replaced the pump after the 2021 snowpocolypse, so I’m pretty sure I’m past a 1 yr warranty, but should have had some life left in it. Yep, delivered on 2/26/21.

Both, L1 on the block to ground, L2 on the block to ground, and then L1 to L2. This was all at the connections on the pump. I have the pentair remote.

I sort of figured that was likely the case. But where does the lcd get its power from? Another piece of info that I didn’t think was really part of the problem, but might be diagnostic. I have the remote setup, it’s also lost comm connection. Oh. and the D1 diode light seems to blink off and...

And another piece of info or two: I tested HV to the pump and both legs are good. On the pcb, there’s a 4 lug connector at the bottom with green and yellow wires on connectors 2 and 3. If those are supposed to put out anything constant, there’s a problem. It bounces around at the 0 to 0.5V...

It doesn’t say anything. LCD is totally blank. In service mode, the easytouch panel has no impact.

Alrighty, I tested this morning with the alternate ic40 and it powers up just fine. No tripped breaker. But no power to the pump still. Could that be an issue with the pcb too? Or do I need to start looking at other things. It looks like my cell is bad, my pcb only puts out 27V DC, and the...

It’s always possible there’s some bad wiring outside the box. Jim was awesome and loaned me a used ic40 that I’ll test out tomorrow. I only had the connector loose to test the output pins, which only provided 27V DC. If I disconnect the ic40, the breaker stays on. When I then connect the ic40...

It’s an all-in-one box/panel. I’ll try and grab a pic in a bit. I took one of the pcb that I *think* is bad earlier. 4 pin dongle disconnected so I could test voltage.
