Played around with this some more yesterday. It appears my voltmeter readings were off due to where I probed. I was using the terminal strip screw heads. Turns out the "well" where the wire goes in is a much better place to measure from. I'm now consistently seeing 9.9V outside and 9.8V inside...

Found a helpful link at the bottom of this thread. https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/rev-6700-error.260111/ I was getting ~17 ohms one-way (at least on the power wire). Link says it should be under 10 ohms round-trip for the 2 comm wires. Appears my wiring resistance may be too high. Need...

No issues found with any of the connections for the 4 wires. I did see on page 2 of the Jandy troubleshooting doc where it says "The Controller is supplied 10 VDC from the power center via the outside two wires (red and green) of the 4 conductor cable.". This is very close to what I see when...

Inside control panel had all LEDs illuminated, including 2 with no corresponding button that can be seen thru the cover. Screen shows 6700 Rev C. Display backlight also turns on and off randomly when issue is present. Had this issue before. Tinkered with it some (Rpl 9V batt, disconnected...

My RS6 control panel backlight has been flickering for a couple of weeks. 2 days ago the control panel went to all LEDs on and s/w info displayed on screen. It would not respond to buttons being pushed. Went outside to main power center for pool, shut off all power for a few mins. Turned power...

In regards to the Kool-coat, one issue that may or may not pertain to the ops situation. We have shingles with tiny stones that come loose over time and get washed off the roof when it rains (no gutters). The Kool-coat stuff would trap the tiny pebbles in the depressions. Looked bad. Cleaning...

Try measuring a white limestone sample. We installed it this year after 15 yrs of kool-coat. Doesn't seem to heat up at all in 100+ degs and full sun. Not slippery wet or dry. Very easy on tender feet.

Being totally ignorant of how pools are built, I orig thought the deck was on top of the pool structure when I saw the crack behind the water line tile. This is where the confusion began since the crack was very clean/straight and initially appeared to be a mating surface. I assumed something...

Pics from 6 weeks after tile work and re-plaster but before "fix" was done today. Only a small area in pics but crack extends 5-6 feet.

That cut-away and link helps but I still have no idea if it was built right to begin with. There was an expansion joint between the coping and deck when we had brick coping and we still had the issue. I remember they had to replace the expansion joint mastic and it was pretty expensive stuff...

Pool built in 2000. We moved in ~2010. At shallow end, the water line tile (6"sq) was popping loose. After the tile fell off, saw there was a crack/joint roughly half way up the tile and extended 6+ feet. Thru this "crack" were roots coming into the pool. Had it "fixed" during plaster job. It...

My FC/TC dropped to zero when I added CH too. Luckily it came right back when I added LC. Not sure why it dropped but it's been fine ever since.
