TY, I went back in 45 min later and it was generating again. Thanks for the education!!

I replaced the cell but have additional question. I'm not sure if it is "normal" behavior but after about 90 minutes the cell reads 30 amps and 0 going to the cell 3200 85 30.0 075p 0 Al-0 R1.4 I'm going to hold off and check again in an hour to see if it goes on again. I had read above that...

Had a look. nothing burned, all contacts look clean. Seems like it must be the cell. Question for my general education... and I'm probably reading too much into eval steps you asked for but "guessing" that the polarity reverses each time the unit is turned on/off with at least a minute of delay...

Will do, thanks. I've used only the OEM the Hayward cells in the past. Any of the after market units worth considering?

Ok. Thanks wanted to confirm that it was probably the cell vs the board before replacing. 2014 cell. 3E1436-200318.

Move the switch from auto to off and check all of the readings. 3100 77 30.6 085p 0 Al-0 R1.4 Move the switch back to auto and recheck the readings. 3100 77 24.1 5.35 85p 3100 Al-0 R 1.4 Move the switch to off for a minute and then back to auto and recheck the readings. 3100 78 27.1 .92 85p 0...

Ok. In the article you referenced above it mentioned this: "The control board sets the amps based on the cells salinity reading. Higher salinity will generate higher amps. Amps over 8 can overheat the thermistor. If the amps are 8.0 or higher after you replace the thermistor, you should reduce...

The cell was recently cleaned, has never had much build up on it but I regularly do the acid wash as per the instructions. (which I understand may cause challenges as well... acid deteriorating the cell coatings). I've had a look at the link you shared, very informative. That is what give me the...

You'll see by the Firmware number that the Goldline system has a few years on it. I was thinking that I may need a thermistor replacement? Salt 3100 Temp 74 31.3 0.78 AMPS 70p -3100 AL - 5 r 1.40 Salt as measured by Taylor kit is 3200 so close enough. Thanks

T-Cell 15 - The AMPs on my Goldline SWG start out at 5.2 and then, somewhere between 90-120 minutes of operation, it drops down to about .82. I say about because the number varies but it's always below 1.0. Is this normal behavior? Is it related more to the T-Cell or the controller? The T-Cell...

Well, I thought we could close this thread but it turns out that when I turn on the pump and the SWG starts going, it delivers 5.2 (or so) amps but after about 90 minutes, it drops down to .82 (or so). Is this normal? Does the amperage cycle up and down?

Nice try! I had a 1.5ppm increase between 8pm and 6am so cell is definitely working. Thanks again, we can close this thread.

Wow, you're right. I would have bet $500 that i had just purchased it two years ago but checked my records and sure enough, 2014... Dang, time moves fast. I tested with K1766 and it shows 3400ppm vs 3200ppm. I'm going to set it at 100% tonight as @C0d3Sp4c3 suggested and have it run over night...

Actually, just realized that when set to AL-0 my system no longer recognizes the aquarite as being installed. Need to switch it back.
