Hi PSG:
Well, I determined that without the switch thingie my Flow Switch was not going to work anyway and that was verified by my electrician buddie who dropped by today.
Went to the local pool supply place and they had plenty of the switches in stock so I reckon it is not that rare an occurence. Apparently the switch is rather fragile and if you have a strong water flow through the cell, which I do, it can eventually break off the switch from the head of the probe unit.
Anyway, replaced the switch myself a couple of hours ago and all is well again. Need to add 80 lbs of salt to get the reading up where I like it but otherwise all systems are go.
Thanks again for your help.
