    Air getting into pump

    I have a recent development where air is getting into the pump housing somehow and pushing out to the spa. I can't tell if it's coming in through the pump or elsewhere. So far I have tried different pump lids (with different o-rings), and still the problem persists. I know the most obvious...

    Help me understand which o-ring to buy

    Sorry but I've been driving myself nuts for over a week on this. I have a pump that is attached with a metal compression ring, and I noticed a leak at the bottom. First thing I was told to do was replace the o-ring, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is that I need. Here is a...

    Can I manually ignite my heater? Electronic ignitor broken.

    I have a Raypak with an electronic ignitor, which appears to suddenly be non-functional. It no longer buzzes when starting, and after 30 seconds or so just gives the "ignition failure" error. I have a company coming out next week to look at it, but in the meantime I was wondering if it's...

    Both pumps suddenly stopped working

    Good idea! It's now raining here so I'm unable to test at the moment, but I have a voltmeter and will check when able.

    Both pumps suddenly stopped working

    Thanks, that makes sense! Strangely nothing is tripping, even with all equipment turned on, so unsure what's going on. I'll open it tomorrow, see what I can find, and likely have a professional out next week.

    Both pumps suddenly stopped working

    Thanks for the response! I have a decent understanding of electrical, but will still be having someone out next week if I can’t find anything obvious, it’s not worth the risk to me. As for the clicking, it’s actually always done that, for every item in the panel. It does it for the lights, the...

    Both pumps suddenly stopped working

    I have two pumps, one for the pool and the other for the hot tub. I was in the pool earlier and the pool pump was running, and my wife asked for me to heat the pool. I went to turn the heater on, but it wouldn't spark. This has been happening for about a week now, but last weekend resetting the...

    Aqua Rite power cycling

    Hey all, I have an older Aqua Rite that is power cycling whenever I connect a cell. I have tested it with several T15 cells and when they are plugged in but not connected (no waterflow), the board behaves normally and the voltage stays at a consistent ~22. When I plumb in the cell and run it, it...

    I think, unfortunately, based on the below I'll have to replace the whole thing. Good to know about the OneTouch though!

    Gotcha, thanks for the info. I realize I could have shopped around and found a newer board but I was sort of in a bind. Live and learn. Looks like I got an RS8. Would this be a suitable replacement...

    Update on this, I had my new board installed this week and it's working great. As a wrench thrown into things, they installed the Rev A board and found it couldn't control the actuators. I guess maybe it was RMA'd? In any event, I bought a used Rev MMM from them for $400. My thought is that I'll...

    Thanks for the above info, I'm resigned to the knowledge that I'll likely have to swap out the whole board in the future. Here is the back of the other board, I'm unsure as it doesn't have the same messaging on it.

    So it looks like I have the very first board, revision A. With that being said, it looks like I'll need the more expensive version of the upgrade to the wireless system? Something like this...

    Merged threads - TFP Mod Hello, I have an old system that went out, and I happen to have an RS6 that I am looking to get installed. It did not come with a PDA (I think that's what they're called?), nor does it have the IQ2.0 kit. It did come with a wired remote. I'd like to install the IQ2.0...

    Interestingly the smaller one isn't an old board (to me), neither of them have ever been installed from what I can tell. I'm curious why he has two as well. If I call a pool company out would they be readily able to tell me what I need to get this installed and working, or do I need to look for...

    Thanks! Here is the back of both of the boards. Unfortunately I don't see a daughterboard, is that something that can be bought a la carte if that's the only thing preventing this from being functional?

    Thanks for all of the great info! To give you some more insight, here is what I currently have outside. Outside of the box that's already in been posted, I have my breaker box, my heater which got smashed by a tree, and my chlorine generator. I realize how junky it is out here and I apologize...
