    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    Okay. Wires switched. Now the pool pump turns on based on the time set on the variable pump, not the timer. The SWG is set to the timer and only comes on during the hours of the pump. I confirmed the flow switch is working properly. So far, so good. The salt still shows 3600 but it's...

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    I will move those wires and then put the timer clips on to match the pool pump run time. I think the flow switch is fine; at least I don't get a "no flow" light. For the pool pump, do I move the wire from terminal 2 to 1 and the blue from 4 to 3?

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    There are two timers. The second timer was originally used for the pool sweep. However, I use a robotic sweep now, and that timer isn't used. So I should move the blue pump wire to terminal 1 and leave the blue SWG where it is on terminal four? Then set the timer to activate during the hours...

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    Forgive me, as I am not sure what the load side is or if the way Leslie's wired this is correct. However, I took some pictures. The pool pump and the SWG each have a blue wire that goes to the far right post. There are no clips on the timer and so its always hot (I assume). If I move the red...

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    Thanks James! I just discovered that when my variable pump was installed they removed the clips off the sundial/clock that was used to turn the pump and thus the SWG on/off. Since the new pump has its own clock it automatically turns on and off at the programmed time. However, as a result, it...

    Sir, The SWG has power even when the pump is off. How would I know if the flow switch isn't working?

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    This morning I checked on the system and unfortunately the check salt and inspect cell lights were on (solid) and the display showed 1900. I turned it off and back on and went to the instant salinity which was -3600. I recalibrated the system and its back to generating. Something is definitely...

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    I don't know if it means anything, but the top of the box is very warm, almost too warm to put my hand on. Is that normal and/or a sign of a problem?

    AJW22... Thanks for the info. I am learning a lot from you all. Okay, so I just went out and cranked up the output, heard a click, and then got the following readings: 3500, 87, 24.6, 7.23, 90p, -3600 (still high though), R 1.40 and the generating light is on. Despite being 200 over the 3400...

    Update. As a test, I put the OEM board back in and tried it with the newest salt cell; for an hour or so everything looked great. The generating light was on and the following was on the display: 3500, 85, 25.2, 6.92, 51p, -3400, AL-0, R 1.40. Then after an hour, I had the following on my...

    Thank you for the info on the salinity test kit. However, what are the odds that four different tests, at three different pool stores, are all wrong, and came up with the same results?

    Goldline Aqua Rite SWCG Troubleshooting

    I need some help, please. I have an Aqua Rite Goldline saltwater system that was installed in 2005. Last swim season the salt cell went out and I put off buying a new one until this month. After replacing the T-15 cell with a generic cell and adding salt, I got a high salt warning light. I...

    Pool pump

    The pool pump runs 5 hours a day right now. Maybe an hour longer or so if hot out. Sweep runs 3 hours a day. Water looks great an generally only need to add 32 oz acid each week.

    Pool pump

    I am new to this forum so I apologize if this is not in the right area. I am thinking about buying a variable speed pool pump. My PG&E power bill is out of control (500-700 a month). I am wondering if buying a variable speed pump would help and if so what would be the best size, kind for me. My...
