If I ever get a new unit like this the first thing I’m doing is opening it up and putting in that water sensor.

After some more testing, i found one motor went bad as well as the motor circuit board. This all started from a small leak that sprung apparently from a defective factory seal. I have a replacement motor on order. By chance does anyone know the exact size of the seal? Couple thoughts; It's...

Ebay Definitely not new. New to me. And better then my obviously burnt circuit board. It seems to have made some progress, now lift works. With one side not running. And no programs work still, with same error 10. Either i plugged in the motors wrong, or i also have a faulty motor. They all...

Soldering on a new capacitor did not fix it. Looks like possibly more was burnt besides the capacitor. The original circuit board would either require professional repair or goes in the garbage. A replacement board should be getting delivered in a few days. All because a top of the line pool...

Eventually I ended up taking off the motor housing. And it was not completely dry inside. The circuit board had a fried capacitor. Most likely from getting wet. Makes no sense to me to replace the entire motor assembly just for a circuit board issue. As much as Polaris would like this. Nope not...

I did this and unfortunately it didn't solve the issue. A couple fasters were kind of loose in the plug so was hoping that did it by tightening them. Nope :( I did notice some wear on the line right before that plug, its very little wear, not enough wear to actually make a hole in the...

Thanks. I did check continuity and was fine when I checked. But maybe it’s intermittent because of a loose connection. If it’s just a wire I have no problem shortening a bit or modifying as needed, as long as the modified part is not in the water. Otherwise waterproofing a splice may be an issue...

Thank you for this! I’ll be checking that today. And will update here soon as I can.

Which elbow? At the cleaner or the brain?

It's no more than 4 years old. Based on searches i have done, that seems to be the threshold for this dreaded error 10. From my searches, most posts are years old. I was just wondering if there was any new info on this error? The cleaners propellor starts and runs for about 2-3 seconds when any...

Same thing seems to have started happening with google dns as well. Soon no public dns servers will support whatever type of dns the device is sending. Maybe sending large tcp dns packets? Makes no sense why tho. Unless the internal software was developed really crappy.

Thank you! I had no idea that existed. Its perfect.

Is anyone willing to sell me an old non-working t-cell, just for the shell? Please message me. Im not a natural hagler, please give me a fair price and i will accept it and pay quickly :) Shipped to 32137 Yep - i was an idiot and simply threw out my old one many years ago. I always end up...

This was 3 years ago. And its still a mystery.

I’m having the exact same issue as the OP. Says lost link. But works, slowly, but works. No idea what the lost link is about. Also I read somewhere how I can control using my local IP. But lost the info, can anyone share?

The calcium hypochlorite shock worked wonders on those spots! They are now completely gone. Thanks!!

I test regularly. I have never needed to add chemicals to get levels correct. Sometimes I super chlorinate using the salt cell. That’s it.

Thank you I’ll give this a try. This is a salt water pool. I don’t add any chemicals. The pool is always very clean and clear. It’s just this one spot I can’t seem to get rid of.

I tried to use some hydrochloric acid on the pool floor. This is in the deep end, so got one of those sticks with the acid holder on the end. Didn’t work. It looks almost like dirt. But it’s not. It won’t come out no matter what I have tried so far.

This does seem simple enough. Its so strange replacement batteries aren't available. They don't last forever. One thing i would recommend is while soldering use solder paste, and use shrink tubing instead of electrical tape. Ends up being a better job done. Has anyone had any luck finding a...

Yes but expensive

So this board is not repairable diy. The screen is soldered in. Just wanted to uodate for anyone else interested. these boards do not have modular parts.

Thanks I’ll get a Hayward valve to replace this one. I have a couple more which are mismatched but those are fine and not leaking at all. Yet...

They ara all Hayward GVA24 actuators. I am not sure of the valve brand there. It’s been there since before I owned it. I always use pentair valves. Yes it’s cracked at the front right screw that also holds down the actuator. It’s like a hairline crack but it started squirting out.

I guess old age. I don’t know for sure. Maybe due to years of strong UV exposure. It cracked where one of the screws goes into the body. No one touched it and it cracked out of nowhere. It’s original from when the pool was built about 10 or so years ago. I tried using plastic jbweld and...

Here is a wider picture This is the return to pool plumbing portion, which also includes a 3 way valve (in the front) that bypasses the caretakerto a water feature. This 3 way valve is what cracked and needs to be replaced. The way it was plumbed there is no room for repairs. I need to replace...

Thanks. That makes sense. There is no winterizing where I live. And for 6 years I’ve owned the pool. I’ve never once used this. I’ll probably just get rid of it.
